[Ed Note] One of the things we liked about Harry Truman is that he seemed to always accept the responsibility of being the final decision maker and responsible person, as the sign on his desk read: "The buck stops here!"  The following is a political satire of when this is not the case.

How many members of the Bush Administration does it take to change a light bulb?

Answer: Ten.

1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed.

2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb needs to be changed.

3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb.

4. One to tell the nations of the world that they are either "for" changing the light bulb or "for" darkness.

5. One to give a billion dollar, no-bid contract to Halliburton for the new light bulb.

6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing on a stepladder under the banner: "Light Bulb Change Accomplished."

7. One administration insider to resign and write a book documenting in detail how Bush was literally in the dark.

8. One to viciously smear #7.

9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how George Bush has had a strong light-bulb-changing policy all along.

10. One to confuse Americans about the difference between screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.
