Bill Clinton is visiting a school In one class he asks the students if anyone can give him an example of a tragedy One little boy stands up and offers If my best friend who lives next door was playing in the street when a car came along and killed him that would be a tragedy No Clinton says That would be an ACCIDENT A girl raises her hand If a school bus carrying fifty children drove off a cliff killing everyone involved that would be a tragedy I m afraid not explains Clinton That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS The room is silent; none of the other children volunteer What? asks Clinton Isn`t there any one here who can give me an example of a tragedy? Finally a boy in the back raises his hand In a timid voice he speaks: If an airplane carrying Bill and Hillary Clinton were blown up by a bomb that would be a tragedy Wonderful Clinton beams Marvelous And can you tell me WHY that would be a tragedy? Well says the boy because it wouldn`t be an accident and it certainly would be no great loss
