Bill's Wish

  Bill Clinton was walking along the beach when he stumbled upon a
Genie's lamp. He picked it up and rubbed it and lo-and-behold a Genie
appeared.  Bill was amazed and asked if he got three wishes.
The Genie said, "Nope...due to inflation, constant downsizing, low
wages in third-world countries, and fierce global competition I can
only grant you one wish.  So...what'll it be?"
  Bill didn't hesitate.  He said, "I want peace in the Middle East.  See
this map?  I want these countries to stop fighting with each other."
The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed, "Gadzooks, man! These
countries  have been at war for thousands of years. I'm good but  not
THAT good.
  I don't think it can be done.  So make another wish."
Bill thought for a minute and said, "You know, people really don't
like my  wife.  They think she's a real bitch and ugly as sin.  I wish
for her to be  the most beautiful woman in the world and I want
everybody to like her.  That's what I want."
The Genie let out a long sigh and said, "Lemme see that map again."
