As an American, I'm sorry to say that neither Robertson or Rumsfeld has
a sense of humor, and apparently neither has any sense of irony either.<br>

<div>So who has the best sense of humour out of<font color="#000000">
Pat Robertson</font> and Rumsfeld. Please clarify for a non-American
if the joke was in the christian terrorist statement (let's kill
an elected head of state) or in the response (the US doesn't do that
sort of thing). I just don't get this sort of humour?</div>

Too subtle? No, but I must confess that I missed your play, to my<br>
dismay. I believe that one needs at least 20 puns each day for
good<br>
health. I am *green* with envy over missing that conservational
play!<br>
Maybe we should have a green envy party, or just a green party.<br>
Actually, I think some Americans have picked up on the Green Party<br>
idea from Europeans.<br>
