It seems that the 2004 election was too close to call so Bush and Kerry were sent to a frozen lake in northern Wisconsin to have an ice-fishing contest.
No one was allowed to accompany them, and the guy who caught the most fish in five days would be declared president.
On the first day they went out in different directions. Kerry came back with 10 fish. Bush caught none.
On the second day Kerry caught 20 fish and again W came back empty handed.
When Kerry brought back 25 fish on day three and W still hadn't caught any, Bush got worried and telephoned Cheney for advice.
"He's probably cheating," suggested the VP.
"I hadn't thought of that," said W. "You're probably right. What do we do?"
Cheney suggested that, instead of going fishing the next day, Bush follow Kerry to see what he was doing.
At the end of day four Bush called Cheney and told him, "You were right, Dick, the bastard is cheating."
"What's he doing?" asked Cheney.
"He's cutting holes in the ice!"
