Saddam, Bill, and the small red buttons.
The peace talks are in progress.
Saddam invites Bill over to Bagdahd to talk. Halfway through the talks, Saddam presses a small red button on his chair. Suddenley, a boxing glove flies through the air and hits Bill right on the nose.
“Ah Crap!” whines Bill “Why d’ya do that?”
Saddam just laughs. After about 10 more minutes of the peace talks, Saddam pushes another small red button on his chair. From underneath the table, a big boot comes out and kicks Bill right in the nuts.
“Goddamit! What was that for?” says Bill.
Again, Saddam laughs and they carry on with the talks. After yet another 10 minutes, Saddam pushes another button on his chair, and Bill is given a rather hefty electric shock.
“That’s it,” says Bill “I’m going back to Washington”
A couple of weeks later, Saddam gets a letter inviting him over to the White House. He accepts, and flies over. They start the talks and everything is going smoothly, when suddenly Bill pushes a small red button on his chair. Saddam, expecting something to come flying out from under the table, flinches, but yet nothing happens. Bill, sitting behind his desk, chuckles, and the talks resume.
After about 10 minutes Bill pushes another small red button on his chair, and again Saddam flinches, but yet still nothing happens. Saddam, now a bit pissed off, offers to resume the talks, and the talks resume.
After another 10 minutes, Bill pushes yet another small red button on his chair. Saddam ducks, expecting a flying boxing glove or an electric shock.
Nothing happens.
Saddam, enraged, yells “Thats it! I’m going back to Bagdahd!”.
Bill chuckles and calmly says: “Bagdahd? What Bagdahd?”
