Bush, Chirac, and Ahmadinejad die and arrive in hell. The devil sees their faces and asks, “why are you so depressed?” Bush says “I left USA so fast, I did not have time to kiss my family good bye, I wish I could call the States.” The devil gives him a phone, Bush calls home, talks with his family, gives a couple of instructions to Condi Rice… When he’s finished, the devil asks for 2 million USD, Bush says “What? 2 million bucks? I only spoke for 10 minutes. That’s insane!” The devil answers, “but you are in hell man, that’s some distance call!”
Chirac then tells the devil, “if Bush could call the USA, I want to call France!” And so he does too. When he is finished, devil asks for 3 million Euros. Chirac is shocked: “What? 3 million Euros for 15 minutes talk?”, “well you call from hell…” answers the devil.
Finally, Ahmadinejad asks for the telephone to call Iran. He starts to speak and speak and speak for 5 hours on nuclear energy. When he is finished, he asks, “how much should I pay?” Devil says “5000 Tomans [about 6 USD]“. “Only 5000 Tomans for 5 hours?” asks Ahmadinejad. “Well” says the Devil, “that’s a local call…”
Thanks to ZM.
Good joke –
5,000 Tomans (50,000 Rials) is only 6 dollars? That’s over 830 Toman per dollar.
In 1978 one dollar was 7 Tomans.
What has happend to the Rial?

Very funny. But Chirac’s call should have been local as well.

Fear the Seeds, France isn’t that bad. Better human rights than the US, in any case (universal healthcare)!

French Human Rights? Have you ever met an Algerian? Remember those riots not too long ago? I think they had something to do with human rights. But everyone was speaking French so I couldn’t keep up… and I can’t remember, what were the Great Health Care Inventions and Cures the French gave the world again?

Haha! I’ve heard this before only the one making the “local call” was from India.

do you have any idea what universal health care does? if you live with it now you have no comparison. americans would be taxed out their brains and have TERRIBLE care. i have lived under both and it’s scary to think we would choose the worst.

In what country is a Muslim free to practise the non-murdering/raping/pillaging parts of his religion?
