So this old guy wanders up to the steps of the White House
Edited on Tue Jan-20-09 11:24 AM by MindPilot
He asks the Marine guard if he can visit President Bush.

The Marine politely explains. "Sir, Mr Bush is not the president and no longer lives here."

"Okay", the man says as he walks away.

The next day the old man asks the Marine the same question. He politely explains. "Sir, Mr Bush is not the president and no longer lives here."

"Okay", the man says as he walks away.

The next day after being asked the same question, the Marine is a little irritated. "Sir, for three days in a row you have walked up these steps to ask me the same question. Every day I politely explain that 'Mr Bush is not the president and no longer lives here.' Why? Do you not understand what I'm telling you?"

"Oh I understand, the man replies, I just like hearing it."

The Marine smiled and responded, "Then, I'll see you again tomorrow, sir."

2. You left out the last part of the joke!
The Marine smiled and responded, "Then, I'll see you again tomorrow, sir."

3. Fixed. Thanks for that.
The mind is not well-focused right now.

4. In the version I hear, he snaps to attention and salutes the guy. Which I love even better.
