Ein Hallo an alle! Hello everybody!
As
I promised the “hint-series” will change its face. Sorry again for all the
missing translations, but it would have taken too much time otherwise. I have
included a new link on my homepage (www.geocities/michwink/newsticker.htm).
From now on I will try to publish some important (political or relevant)
information there. As far as possible this will be done in German and English.
Everyone is cordially summoned up to send any interesting web page or
information to my address and I try to put it on that site. Of course, the final
decision whether it will be published there or not, will be in my hands.
Last
but not least, I would like to talk about a thing which may have been a bit
forgotten due to all those serious issues in the world, but which is
indispensable in this world: humour. There are hundreds of humorous web sites
about George W. Bush and despite Watergate and all sex affairs this man is
simply unbeatable! Therefore I would like to include a joke which was sent to me
by a friend from Berlin last week; furthermore a fictive dialog between George
W. Bush and Donald Rumsfeld – “Washington, Wednesday morning, half nine, on
the way to work.”
English
translations you will find at the end of the German versions.
So
far, so good, see you next time. Bye for now, yours Michael.
The
SPIEGEL published this picture last year (iss. 36/2002) on the occasion of the
first anniversary of “September 11th”. The original subtitle read
like this: “President Bush, Defence
Minister Rumfeld: ‘The war is not over at all.’, in front of the damaged
Pentagon on September 12, 2001”
I
would like to change this subtitle into a dialogue like this:
Donald:
„...“
George:
„Don?“
Donald:
“What’s up, George?”
George:
„Well, Don, I couldn’t sleep last night ..“
Don:
„Why, George?“
George:
„Hm, I just don’t believe that people will accept the story about the plane
in the Pentagon.”
Don:
„George, how often do I have to repeat this again and again? It is not
important what you believe but our American fellow countrymen.”
George:
„But ..“
Don:
„No ‚But’! We’ll show them the collapsing WTC towers and the face of
Osama Bin Laden a hundred times and that will do. No-one will be interested in
the Pentagon. And even if so, then we will declare that they are enemies of
Democracy and the rest will be done for us by the media. What do they get their
money for, hm? .. that’s going to be great fun, George, believe me.”
George:
“Well, if you think, it will be easy like this, Don.”
Don:
“George, what happened to your memory? Don’t you remember anymore how you
have won the last elections?”
George:
„Well, now that you’ve told me that .. Whew, I just feel much better now,
Don.”
Don:
”It can be so easy,, George.”
On
a propaganda tour through the US George W. Bush is visiting a school explaining
his politics to the pupils there. After that he’s asking the children to ask
question.
Little
Bob is raising his hand: “Mr. President, I’ve got three questions.
1.
How could you win the election although you had lost the counting of the
votes?”
2.
Why do you want to attack the Iraq without any reason?”
3.
Don’t you think, that the bomb dropped over Hiroshima was the biggest
terrorist act ever?”
Suddenly
the school bell is ringing and all pupils are running out of the class room.
When coming back from the break the President is inviting the children once more
to ask their questions.
This
time it is Joey who is taking the floor: ”Mr. President, I’ve got five
questions.”
1.
How could you win the election although you had lost the counting of the
votes?”
2.
Why do you want to attack the Iraq without any reason?”
3.
Don’t you think, that the bomb dropped over Hiroshima was the biggest
terrorist act ever?”
4.
Why did the school bell ring 20 minutes earlier than usually?”
5.
Where is Bob?”
In
this sense – take care of yourself. Yours, Mike.
