President Bush's doctor was concerned when Bush collapsed at the Japanese
State Dinner, but got even more worried later.  It seems that once they
got Bush back to his suite, he started speaking in complete sentences!

(The idea for this was stolen from Dave Barry's year-end column in the
Washington Post a couple weeks ago).

Original.

At a dinner in Japan yesterday, President Bush threw up and passed
out.  This was caused by a mixup in the kitchens; that plate had been
intended for Lee Iacocca.

Subject: Bush gets Japanese flu...
From: trebor@foretune.co.jp (Robert J Woodhead)

When asked why President Bush collapsed (allegedly with gastroenteritis)
at a state dinner in Tokyo, a spokesman for the Japanese foreign
ministry is alleged to have said:

	"We urged him not to eat that California rice!"

The other rumor is that Bush was accidentally stabbed by a Bulgarian
Chopstick...

Last night ABC News aired a special report on President Bush's visit to
Japan.  The commentators were explaining that a major component of the
trade deficit was automobiles; imports from Japan are flooding the US market.
They then broke for a commercial - for Mitsubishi cars.

With Bush being sick, I suppose we can all now say:

Dan Quayle:  A heartburn away from the Presidency.

George Bush didn't really have the flu the other day.  A GM executive had
promised a campaign contribution if he would puke on the Japanese Prime
Minister's carpet.

An amusing remark by Simon Hoggart (sp?) this morning (Saturday, Jan
11) on NPR's Weekend Edition this morning.  It gave me a small chuckle.

Regarding George Bush's fainting spell at the State Dinner in Japan:

	In Japan, you usually only faint after you get the bill.

What was the Last thing Miizawa said to Bush?

Try the Fugu, IT's delicious.


[Authors note.  For those who are not aware, fugu is a highly toxic
blowfish the japanese eat as a delicacy.  1-2 people every year
fugu out of this planet.  I made this up while discussing japanese
culture with a friend of mine]

What's the Dress Code at White House functions?

Old Clothes.


[  I think this was made in Tony Kornheisers column in the Washington Post.
It's a paraphrasing, of some remarks he made about Bush being made an
Honorary member of every party frat in america]

(This is an original joke)

George Bush in 1992:

Ask not what your president can do for you, 
ask what you can do for your president!

This letter was forwarded Mon 9:39pm, 13 Jan 1992 CST by JON@BODEDO:

Bush took the leaders of the big-three automakers to Japan to help revive
the U.S. economy.

For a while the economy was doing very very well.

Then he brought them back.
