George Bush, der Humorige

Warum nicht einen guten Witz mehrmals erzählen? Das sagt sich auch der amerikanische Präsident,
dessen Job ansonsten darin besteht, anderen Leuten das Lachen in den Hals zu stecken. Sagt man das nicht so?

Trotz allem hier die Witzserie Bushs zum Thema “Wer klaut das Silber im Weissen Haus?”

Good morning. I hope you all enjoyed the holiday reception at the White House as much as Laura and I enjoyed it. We took an inventory of the silverware, and this year only a few pieces were missing. So like if you see Gregory, tell him to bring them back.
— President Bush press conference, 20.12.2007 (referring to NBC’s David Gregory)

I love meeting with the Members. For those of you who have been to our office, thanks for coming. For those of you that have not been to our office yet, you’re coming. Just don’t take any silverware. [Laughter]
— President Bush, February 2, 2001, two weeks after taking office; remarks at the Republican Congressional Retreat in Williamsburg, Virginia

It’s good to see my old fellow owner, “the Boss.” [Laughter] What a record you’ve had — a man who demands excellence and oftentimes gets it. [Laughter] But thank you for coming, George. I know the real boss of the Yankees is here, too, Arthur Richman. [Laughter] How are you, Arthur? Good to see you. I told you one of these days we would get to the White House. Just don’t take any silverware, Arthur. [Laughter]
— President Bush, May 4, 2001, referring to Yankees owner George Steinbrenner and senior advisor Arthur Richman during remarks honoring 2000 World Series Champion New York Yankees.

Thank you all for coming. I’ll see you Thursday, coats and ties. [Laughter] This year, Gregory, don’t take any silverware. [Laughter]
— President Bush, December 15, 2003 press conference; referring to upcoming holiday party

I want to thank Bob Wallace, the executive director. He spends a lot of time in the Oval Office. I’m always checking the silverware drawer. [Laughter]
— President Bush, August 22, 2007, referring to VFW executive director Robert E. Wallace during remarks at Veterans of Foreign Wars National Convention in Kansas City, Missouri.
