sharing is caring~~~ *edited

this was taken from my cousin's blog... i thought it was entertaining... so i decided to share... hahahaha...




Legend has it that George Washington, America's first president, choppeddown a cherry tree in his youth.
George gives the tree a good swing andchops it down with an axe .
His father sees the damaged tree and asks hisson if he knows who did the deed.
George is quoted bravely admitting thetruth :
- 'I can't tell a lie, Pa; you know I can't tell a lie. I did cut itwith my axe.'




This is a satire of how some Malaysian politicians circa 2008 may havereacted to the question :-

PM Badawi - I did not cut down the tree, I was just taking a nap underneathit.


Najib - I swear that I have never MET that tree.

Hishamuddin- ... but I only own a keris, not axe, how to cut down the tree.

Dr.M - Apa nama cherry tree, I chopped it down because, I don't like theidea of Pak lah sleeping under it.

Chua Soi Lek - Yes it was me, I resign as caretaker of this orchard.

VK Lingam - It could be me, it might have been me but I don't think it's me.

Anwar Ibrahim - I DID NOT do it, and I am not giving any DNA samples for youto plant on the axe handle.

Khir Toyo - the new state government should just trim the grass and notwaste time asking who cut the tree.

Ahmad Said (Terrenganu MB)- I chopped it because cherry trees are moreexpensive to maintain than durian trees.

Azalina Othman - The cherry tree is not included under my tourism MOU so I cut it down. Besides there were unauthorized signboards put up around thetree.

Shabery Cheek - I challenge you to a debate on tree cutting.

Samy Velu - I chopped it because HINDRAF members were using it as a meetingpoint

Wira Ali Rustam - We have planted Durian trees for 50 years and we willplant them for another 50 years, we do not need cheery trees, apple trees,pear trees and all these other foreign trees.

Rais Yatim - you must see the bigger picture, Ahmad said cherry trees areexpensive to maintain, Ali Rustan said that are against our nationalidentity and I needed to test my new axe, so you see- it's a WIN-WINsituation all around.

Sharir Samad - I cut the tree because we could no longer afford to subsidizeit.

Karpal Singh - The bigfoot creature did it.

Bung Mokhtar - The big monkey did it

Pandikar Amin Mulia - There is nothing in the standing orders againstchopping cherry trees, Kinabatangan duduk, Bukit Gelugor duduk.sit down.

Khairy Jamaluddin - I did not do it, neither did the mat rempits. By theway, what's a cherry tree ?

Lim Kit Siang - In response to Khairy - cherry tree also you don't know, youare an insult to Oxford.

Nazri Aziz - racist, racist, racist, when we cut down durian trees nobodymade a fuss.
