Jokes for Jay Leno 02: President Bush

This is the second in a series to help Jay Leno find jokes for the Tonight Show. We focus on news about President Bush.

Cost of Iraq Occupation

When no WMDs were found in Iraq, President Bush said we went in there to get Sodom Hussein and to give the Iraqi people a constitution. So far the cost of that constitution is $170 billion dollars. Thats $635 for each Iraqi.

We could have sent each of them an individual copy of our constitution by UPS for $46.69.

Fishing in Germany

The President told a German newspaper that the best day on the job was when he caught a 7.5 pound perch.

The biggest perch ever caught was 4 pounds 3 ounces caught in 1865.

Well, all fishermen lie!

President Bush Look-Alike

Bush Versus Bush

George H.W. Bush flew Avengers from USS San Jacinto. On September 2, 1944 he was shot down over Chichi Jima. Bush parachuted safely and earned a DFC for delivering his bomb load after his TBF had been hit.

President George W. Bush climbed into the co-pilot seat of a naval jet and on landing stepped out on the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln to a banner that said Mission Accomplished. He earned the scorn of Americans who think he screwed up an unnecessary war.
