The real face of george bush.....

George Bush goes to a primary school to talk about the war. After his talk, he offers question time.

One little boy puts up his hand and George asked, what is your name?

Bob

And what is your question, Bob?

I have 3 questions.

First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the support of the UN?


Second, why are you president when al gore got more votes?

Third, what happened to Osama bin laden?

Just then, the bell rings for recess.

George bush informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.

When they resume George says, Ok where were we?

Oh, that's right. Question time. Who has a question?

A different little boy raises his hand.

George points him out and asked him what is your name?

Steve

And what is your question Steve?

I have 5 questions.

First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the support of UN?

Second, why are you president when Al Gore got more votes?

Third, what happened to Osama bin laden?

Fourth, why did the recess bell go 20 minutes early???????????????

Fifth, where is Bob??????????

The 10 biggest falls of the Sensex

The Bombay Stock Exchange benchmark Sensex sank by 951 points on black Monday on panic selling by funds, triggered by weak global cues. Similarly, the wide-based National Stock Exchange's index Nifty dropped by 243 points to 4,503.

The government meanwhile said that Indian stock markets are taking cues from the United States and Asian markets, even though the sub-prime mortgage crisis has only moderately impacted the credit and financial flows into the country.

In 2004 Time magazine in their third annual special on Asia's heroes selected him along with 19 other Asian's as the 20 Asian Heroes under the age of 40 . Out of the 20, Khan was one of the four who graced the South Asian edition of that issue.

In 2005 he appeared on the cover of the Asian edition of the National Geographic magazine dated February 2005. This was a rare honour extended by National Geographic since unlike many other magazines celebrities are not their natural choice for a cover image
