    Or, only by americans anywhere.

    You are at a road crossing about May, 1945 in Berlin. The guards stop anybody approaching until they identify themselves.

    Q: "Halt, who goes there?"
    A: "Vive la Francias"

    Salute: Pass frenchman

    Q:"Halt, who goes there?"
    A: "God save the Queen!"

    Salute: Pass englishman

    Q:"Halt, who goes there?"
    A: "Who the Hell wants to know?"

    Salute: Pass american

    :D


    This joke is from long before Bush was ever born. It's just a comparison of cultures. Even the german general that trained our troops, for Gen Washington, said "When I give an order, these men want to know why they must do it before they are satisfied and do as ordered."

    The WWII joke was when it occured. I'm 100% american. It's just a gentle nudge about our roughness around the social collar.

    Did anyone read any of the thread besides the first post? It is an URBAN LEGEND. I.E. NOT TRUE...

    Also, stop the anti-America BS. Not everyone in America is Mr.Bush. And not everyone in the U.K. has drinking / sex problems and horrible hygiene.

    Personally, I think this thread should have been closed several posts back. It's old, and it's served its purpose.

    It may be old, but there are over 500 new views since its revival. It must be news to some people. Why not let others enjoy?
