FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2002 "General Bush was the supreme cavalry commander of all the cavalry in the United States of America. He was on a tour of inspection of cavalry bases in Injun country. Right now, he was standing on the walls of Camp David. He put the telescope to his eye. "Looks like a small cloud of dust," he said finally. "Try the telescope the other way round," said the grizzled old horseman. General Bush tried the telescope the other way round. "Looks like a big cloud of dust," he said finally. The old cavalryman took the telescope back and looked again. "There's a white man riding a horse causin' that dust," he said, "and the reason he's riding so fast is that there are 20 Injuns behind him." "Right, that's it!" said General Bush. "Let's get on our horses and go massacre those Injuns!" Get the Story:
