Time for a little history tune-up with "WHO SAID IT":
It was the first day of school and a new student named Pedro Martinez,
the son of a Mexican restaurant owner, entered the fourth grade.
The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American history.
"Who said 'Give me Liberty, or give me Death?' "
She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Pedro, who had his hand up.
"Patrick Henry, 1775."
"Very good!" apprised the teacher. "Now, who
said, "Government of the
people by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the
earth?"
Again, no response except from Pedro: "Abraham Lincoln,
1863."
The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be
ashamed!
Pedro who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you
do!"
She heard a loud whisper: "Screw the Mexicans!"
"Who
said that?" she demanded.
Pedro put his hand up. "Jim Bowie,
1836."
At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna
puke."
The teacher glared and asked, "All right! Now, who said
that?"
Again, Pedro answered, "George Bush to the Japanese Prime
Minister,
1991."
Now, with almost a mob hysteria, the teacher said, "You little poop. If
you
say
anything else, I'll kill you!"
Pedro frantically yelled at the top
of his voice,
"Gary Condit to Chandra Levy, 2001."
The teacher fainted, and as the class gathered around her on the floor,
someone said, "Oh no, we're in big trouble now!"
Pedro whispered,
"Saddam Hussein, 2003."
Finally, as someone throws an eraser at Pedro, someone shouted "Duck"!
The revived teacher asked, "Who said that?..................
Pedro: "thingy Cheney, 2006
