The Ghosts of Whitehouse Past

President Elect -George W. Bush thought it would be a good idea if he could get the feel of the White House, so he called upon Clinton to get him an invitation to stay there a few nights. Since Clinton thought it wouldn't be a good idea to turn him down, he invited him to the White House for a visit.

On the first night he was awakened by George Washington's ghost.... "George...what is the best thing I could do to help the country?" Bush asked. "Set an honest and honorable example, just as I did," advised Washington.

With all the excitement of the White House, Bush couldn't sleep well and the next night the ghost of Thomas Jefferson moved through the dark bedroom. "Tom, what is the best thing I could do to
help the country?" Bush asked. "Cut taxes and reduce the size of the government," advised Jefferson.

Bush still couldn't sleep well and the next night he saw another
figure moving in the shadows. It was Abraham Lincoln's ghost. "Abe, what
is the best thing I could do to help the country?", Bush asked.
Abe replied, "Go to the theater!"
