The newswires have reported that the French Government has announced that it
has raised it’s terror alert level from ‘Run’ to ‘Hide’. The only two higher
levels in France are ‘Surrender’ and ‘Collaborate’. The rise was
precipitated by a recent fire, which destroyed France’s White Flag factory,
effectively disabling their military.
The Italians have increased their alert level from “shout loudly and
excitedly” to “elaborate military posturing”. Two more levels remain,
“ineffective combat operations” and “change sides”.
The Germans also increased their alert state from “disdainful arrogance” to
“dress in uniform and sing marching songs”. They have two higher levels,
“invade a neighbour” and “lose”.
Seeing this reaction in continental Europe the Americans have gone from
“isolationism” to “find somewhere else in the middle east ripe for regime
change”. Their remaining higher alert states are “take on the world” and
“ask the British for help”.
Finally in the UK they’ve gone from “pretend nothing’s happening” to “make
another cup of tea”. Their higher levels are “remain resolutely cheerful”
and “win”.

Hillary Clinton goes to a primary school in Ithaca , New York to talk about the world. After her talk she offers question time.
One little boy puts up his hand, and the Senator asks him what his name is.
“Kenneth,” came the reply.
“And what is your question, Kenneth?”
“I have three questions, Ma-am:
First - whatever happened to your medical health care plan?
Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
And third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?”
..Just then the bell rings for recess. Hillary Clinton informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.
When they resume Hillary says, “Okay where were we?
Oh, that’s right, question time. Who has a question?”
This time a different little boy puts his hand up;
Hillary points him out and asks him what his name is.
“Larry,” he said.
“And what is your question?”
“I have five questions:
First - whatever happened to your medical health care plan?
Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
Third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?
Fourth - why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?
And fifth - what happened to Kenneth?”
