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 Little Johnny, a bright foreign
exchange student from Japan , 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 Little Johnny, 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863.'
“Excellent,” said the teacher continuing, “let's try one a bit more
difficult...
Who said, 'Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for
your country?’ “
Once again, Johnny's was the only hand in the air and he said, “John F.
Kennedy, 1961.”
The teacher snapped at the class, “Class, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
Little Johnny isn't from this country and he knows more about our history
than you do.”
She heard a loud whisper: “F*** the Japs.”
'Who said that? I want to know right now,” she angrily demanded.
Little Johnny put his hand up, “General MacArthur, 1945.”
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, Little Johnny says, “George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.”
Now furious, another student yells, “Oh yeah? Suck this!”
Little Johnny jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher,
“Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!”
Now with almost mob hysteria someone said, “You little shit. If you say
anything else, I'll kill you.”
Little Johnny frantically yells at the top of his voice, “Michael Jackson to
the child witnesses testifying against him, 2004.”
The teacher fainted.
As the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, “Oh shit,
we're screwed!”
Little Johnny said quietly, “the American people, November 4, 2008.”
