A squad of American soldiers was patrolling along the Iraqi border. To
their surprise, they found the badly mangled dead body of an Iraqi
soldier in a ditch along the road. A short distance up the road, they
found a badly mangled American soldier in a ditch on the other side
of the road, who was still barely alive. They ran to him, cradled his
blood-covered head and asked him what had happened.
"Well," he whispered, "I was walking down this road, armed to the teeth.
I came across this heavily armed Iraqi border guard. I looked him right
in the eye and shouted, "Saddam Hussein is an unprincipled, lying
bastard!" He looked me right in the eye and shouted back, "Bill Clinton
is an unprincipled, lying bastard!" "We were standing there shaking hands
when the truck hit us."
