So, Bin Laden, Dubya, and Jean Chr�tien are walking separately along a beach.

Suddenly, they simultaneously gatcg a glimpse of an odd-looking bottle buried in the sand. All three grab for it, and the cork dislodges, freeing a genie.

The Genie can't tell who opened the bottle, so he says "I'll split the customary three wishes between the three of you. You go first, Chr�tien."

Chr�tien says "I wish for Canada to always be fruitful and bountiful."

The Genie teleports them to Canada, snaps his fingers, and BAM! Canada blooms, from the border to the tundra, forever.

BinLaden goes next. He says, "I want an impregnable wall around Afghanistan, ten miles high, so that the Americans will never be able to reach us and the Taliban can rule forever."

The Genie teleports them to a refugee camp just outside of Afghanistan, snaps his fingers, and BAM! There's a giant wall around Afghanistan and its few remaining Taliban inhabitants.

Dubya goes last. He takes a long, long, time. The others grow impatient.

Finally, he walks over to the wall.
"Okay..." he says, "fill it with water."

That's quite funny, although I must rain on your parade and say that it's a recycle-job of a joke from about five years ago about Lucien Bouchard wanting a wall around Quebec and Chretien asking for it to be filled. It fits this situation just as well, though...

Naw, I don't like the joke. Dubya doesn't possess that many deductive reasoning skills

Dear lord in heaven, our most religious member has taken to violence!

Funny joke, tho. Of course, it leaves out that George W. Bush will be killing thousands -- if not millions -- of innocent Afghanis suffering under the Taliban, who really don't give a hoot about bin Laden one way or the other, but, hey ...

Perhaps a line should be added wherein Dubya consults his Cabinet, and then says to fill the wall w/ water. :-)

I'm more concerned about the fact that we're adapting Canadian political jokes.

And leaving references to Canada in them that don't even make sense w/ the rest of the joke. :-)
