It was the first day of a school in USA and a new Indian student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade. The teacher said, ‘Let’s begin by reviewing some American History.<\/p>\n
Who said ‘Give me Liberty, or give me Death’?
\nShe saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand
\nup: ‘Patrick Henry, 1775’ he said.
\n‘Very good!’<\/p>\n
Who said ‘Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?’
\nAgain, no response except from Chandrasekhar.
\n‘Abraham Lincoln, 1863’ said Chandrasekhar.<\/p>\n
The teacher snapped at the class, ‘Class, you should be ashamed.Chandrasekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do.’<\/p>\n
She heard a loud whisper: ‘F*** the Indians,’
\n‘Who said that?’ she demanded.
\nChandrasekhar put his hand up. ‘General Custer, 1862.’<\/p>\n
At that point, a student in the back said,’I’m gonna puke.’
\nThe teacher glares around and asks ‘All right! Now, who said that?’
\nAgain, Chandrasekhar says, ‘Al Gore to the Japanese Prime Minister,1991.’<\/p>\n
Now furious, another student yells, ‘Oh yeah? S**k this!’
\nChandrasekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher , ‘Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!’<\/p>\n
Now with almost mob hysteria someone said ‘You little shit. If you say anything else, I’ll kill you.’
\nChandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, ‘Michael Jackson to the child witnesses testifying against him- 2004.’<\/p>\n
The teacher fainted. And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, ‘Oh sh*t, we’re f*****d!’
\nAnd Chandrasekhar said quietly, I think it was George Bush, Iraq ,2007.’ <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
