Bush vs. New Orleans

I don’t know where this joke originated — it was passed on by Barbara’s long-time friend Mary Rocco — but it marks one of the first jokes I’ve heard in a long time that wasn’t a simple repurposing of an old punchline and it manages to tweak Bush on a couple of fronts simultaneously.

Q: What is George W. Bush’s position on Roe vs. Wade?

A: He really doesn’t care how black people get out of New Orleans.

Ba-dum-bum.
