Humor, India, U.S., politics


Time for some humor before we begin the week at work! Received this in an email forward, is quite hilarious!

It was the first day of school and a new student named Chandrashekhar Subramanyam 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 Subramanyam, who had his hand up: “Patrick Henry, 1775″ he said.

“Very good!” Who said, “Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?”

Again, no response except from Subramanyam. “Abraham Lincoln, 1863″ said Subramanyam.

The teacher snapped at the class, “Class, you should be ashamed. Subramanyam, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do!”

She heard a loud whisper: “F**k the Indians!”

“Who said that?” she demanded.

Subramanyam put his hand up. “General Custer, 1862.”

At that point, a student in the back said, “I’m gonna puke.”

The teacher glares around and asks “All right! Now, who said that?”

Again, Subramanyam says, “George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.”

Now with almost a mob hysteria someone said, “You little shit. If you say anything else, I’ll kill you.”

Subramanyam frantically yells at the top of his voice, “Gary Condit to Chandra Levy, 2001.”

The teacher fainted. And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, “Oh shit, we’re fucked!”

And Subramanyam said quietly, “George Bush, Iraq , 2005.”
