One night, George W. Bush is awakened by George Washington's
ghost in the White House. Bush asks him; "George, what's the
best thing I can do to help the country?

"Set an honest and honorable example, just as I did,"
Washington advises.

The next night, the ghost of Thomas Jefferson moves through the
dark bedroom "Tom," Bush asks, "what is the best thing I could
do to help the country?"

"Cut taxes and reduce the size of government," Jefferson
advises.

Bush isn't sleeping well the next night, and sees another
figure moving in the shadows. It's Abraham Lincoln's
ghost. "Abe, what is the best thing I can do now, to help the
country?" Bush asks.

Abe replies; "Go see a play."
