State Dinner (a joke at *'s expense)

[Bertha Venation]

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon came to Washington for meetings with George W., and for a state dinner Laura Bush decided to bring in a special kosher chef and have a Jewish meal.

At the dinner that night, the first course served is matzoh ball soup. George W. looks at this and after learning what it is called, he tells an aide that he can't eat such a gross and strange-looking brew. The aide says that Mr. Sharon will be insulted if he doesn't at least taste it.

Not wanting to cause any trouble (after all, he ate sheep's eye in honor of Arab guests), George W. gingerly lowers his spoon into the bowl and retrieves a piece of matzoh ball and some broth. He hesitates, then swallows. A big grin appears on his face. He finds that he really likes it, and digs right in and finishes the whole bowl.

"That was delicious," Bush says to Sharon. "Do you Jews eat any other part of the matzoh, or just the balls?
