    How the Bush Administration Changes a Light Bulb

    How many members of the Bush administration does it take to change a light bulb?
    1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed;
    2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb needs to
    be changed;
    3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb;
    4. One to arrange the invasion of a country rumored to have a secret
    stockpile of light bulbs;
    5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the new
    light bulb;
    6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing on a
    step ladder under the banner: Light Bulb Change Accomplished;
    7. One administration insider to resign and write a book documenting in
    detail how Bush was literally in the dark;
    8. One to viciously smear #7;
    9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how George Bush has had
    a strong light-bulb-changing policy all along;
    10. And finally one to confuse Americans about the difference between
    screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.
