Jack's Jokes: "It's the way he tells them - you know!"

President George W Bush had just finished a major speech at the United Nations when he was approached by the Iraqi ambassador asking if he could have the straight answer to just one question.
"Sure-thing son, just fire away", said the President.
"Well Mr President, it's about the TV program Star Trek: you know the one about space-ships and aliens. Everyone in Bagdad is watching it. Even my own son has all the videos. We all think the program is great, but there is one thing that is puzzling us. There are Americans, Russians, Chinese, Jews, blacks and even women in it, but we never see any Arabs. Why is that?"
"Well, I think I can answer that one for you," he replied.
"Why, Mr President, is there not one solitary Arab in Star Trek?" the ambassador persisted.
"Well, Mr Ambassador, you gotta understand one thing about the program. It is set in the future!"
