President George W. Bush is visiting a school, The teacher asks
the President if he would like to lead the class in a discussion
of the word 'tragedy' so the president asks the class for an example
of a tragedy.
One little boy stands up and offers, "If my best friend,
who lives next door, is playing in the street and a car runs him
over, that would be a tragedy. "No" says Bush, "that
would be an ACCIDENT."
A little girl raises her hand: "If a school bus carrying
50 children drove off a cliff, killing everyone involved, that
would be a tragedy". "I'm afraid not" explains
the President. "That's what we would call a GREAT LOSS."
The room goes silent. No other children volunteer. President
Bush searches the room. "Isn't there someone here who can
give me an example of a tragedy?" Finally, little Johnny
raises his hand. In a quiet voice he says, "If Air Force
One, carrying you and Mrs. Bush, was struck by a missile and blown
up to smithereens - that would be a tragedy." "Correct"
exclaims Bush, "that's right. And can you tell me WHY that
would be a tragedy?" "Well," Lil' Johnny said,
"cos, like you told us, it wouldn't be no accident, and it
sure as fuck wouldn't be a great loss."
