President Bush was in the oval office wondering whether his next major conflict would be Korea or Iran, when the telephone rang.
"Hallo, President Bush?" a heavily accented voice said."Dis is Archie' up here at da Harp Seal Pub, in Badger's Cove, Newfoundland, Canada, ey? I'm callin' ta tell yas dat we're officially declarin war on yas, ey!
"Well, Archie" George replied, "This is indeed shocking news! How big is your army?"
"Right now," said Archie, after a minute of calculation "Ders myself, My cousin Harold, da next door nayber Mick, and da whole dart team here at da pub. Dat makes eight, ey!
George paused "I must tell you Archie that I have one million men waiting to move, at my command."
"Holy Jeeesssuus", said Archie. "I'll hafta call ya back, ey!
Sure enough, the next day, Archie called again. "Mr. Bush, da war is still on, ey! We managed to gadder up some artillery equipment, by golly!
"And what equipment might that be, Archie?, asked George.
Well sir, we gots us two combines, a D9 dozer, and old Harry's Massey Ferguson tractor."
President Bush sighed,"I must tell you, Archie, that I have 16,000 tanks, and 14,000 armored personnel carriers, and my army has increased to 1.5 million since we last spoke."
"Lard Sufferin Jaysus", says Archie. "I'll be gettin back to yas, ey!
Sure enough, Archie calls the next day. "Mr. Bush, da war's still on, by golly. We gots arrselves some airborne, ey. We rigged up old McFlynn's ultralight with a coupla shotguns, and enlisted a few boys from down at the legion, ey.
George cleared his throat and said " Archie, I must tell you that I have 10,000 bombers and 10,000 fighter planes, and I've increased my army to 2million, since we last spoke."
"Jaysus, Mary, and Joseph," says Archie."I'll be gettin back ta yas, ey."
Sure enough, Archie calls back the next day. "Mr. Bush, I'm sorry, but werr gonna hafta call off dis here war, ey.
"Oh," says the president, "Why the change of heart, Archie?"
"Well sir", says Archie, "We had arrselfs a long chat, over some ales and such, ey! And by golly, we just comes ta reelize, dat derrs no darn way we kin feed no two million prisoners, ey!
