The Pope and Bush were giving a press conference near the Lincoln Memorial.

Suddenly a gust of wind came up and blew the Pontiff's hat into the Reflection Pool. Bush said, "Don't worry, Padre, I'll get it fer ya." Upon which he walked out across the pool and retrieved the Pope's hat.

The Pope declared, "It's a miracle! The president just walked across water as did Jesus."

The next day the headlines read, "Bush Can't Swim."
