White House Parrot

Laura Bush bought her husband a parrot for his birthday, and told Dick Cheney, "The bird is so smart! George has already taught him to mispronounce over 200 words!"

"That's impressive, all right," Cheney said. "But you realize that he just 'says' the words, right? He doesn't understand what they mean."

"That's okay," she replied. "Neither does the parrot."
