President Obama was visiting a primary school and visited the 1st grade classes. The class was in middle of a lesson on words & their meaning. Obama ask if any of the kids could give the meaning of the word "Tragedy"... One lil boy stood up and said,"If my best friend was playing in the road and got hit by a car and killed that would be a tragedy. Obama replied "No, that would be an accident." So a little girl stood up and said "If a bus carrying 50 students ran off a cliff and everyone died, that would be a tragedy!" Obama replied "No, that would be a great loss". So the room went silent and then Little Johnny stood up and said "If You and Mrs. Obama were in a plane and it got hit by a 'friendly fire missle' and you all died then that would be a tragedy!" Obama replied, "Yes, Johnny that would be a tragedy, but can you tell me why?" Johnny said, "Because it sure as hell wont be a great
loss and you can bet your ass it probaly wasnt an accident either!!!!
