Long ago in a democracy far away, there lived a woman named Martha Stewart who had lost her money. Martha live with her only daughter, an independent young woman named Kay Mart Stewart. Now, Martha was very ashamed of her poverty, but she was not angry at the economy that had taken her money.  Kay loved her mother and wanted to help her out, so when Martha asked her to try to marry a rich man, she agreed.  Martha would start a rumor that her daughter was able to turn the stock market around   With this untruth, she would be able to attract the attention of many rich men and marry off Kay.  Martha was happy with her idea.

The rumor spread through the democracy flying in and out of the ears of Colin Powell and President Bush. As greedy as most men in politics are, President Bush believed the rumor and invited Kay to his white house for an Iraqui festival. But when she arrived, he had her thrown into the pressroom filled with journalists and ordered her to turn the stock market around.  The journalists had to report everything that was accomplished.  

Locked in the pressroom, fearing for her life, Kay sat on the floor and cried. She could not believe that the President could be so mean.  How was this a democracy?  As she cried, an ugly man wearing an ugly tie appeared in the pressroom.  The journalists were sleeping now, so no one saw him come in.  

"Why are you crying?" he asked.

Kay replied, "President Bush has ordered me to turn around the stock market.  My mother and I lied so I could marry a rich man."

"But why are you crying?" he asked again.

"Because it can’t be done. Did you ride the short bus at school?"

He said, "You are in luck. I will help you with the stock market, but you promise to give me what I want in return."

Kay nodded. The ugly man made some phone calls and asked a few people to make more phone calls.

He said, “Enron is in, and so is your mother’s stock.  Everything will be fine.”

With the stocks high, the democracy had more money to spend, and everyone could own a dvd player and a Visa card.  The children became greedy and the wives began to cheat on their husbands.  Life was great in the democracy.  President Bush was captured by an angry mob and given to France for further punishment.

The ugly man returned to Kay and said, "Now that I am finished, you must give me what I want. You must give me your mother’s secret recipes!"

Kay replied to him, "I don't negotiate with anyone who interferes with my rights as an American citizen!"

The ugly man was surprised. He knew he should have never negotiated with a woman.  He said slyly, "Okay. I will let you out of the bargain if you can guess what my name is."

"All right," said Kay. She paused a second and said, "Would your name be...oh, I don't know...Osama Bin Laden?"

"AAAAAAAKKKKKKK!" yelled the ugly man. "But...but...how did you know?"

She replied, "Your beard and turban gave you away, but the missile in your left pocket is what told me who you were."

Osama yelled in anger, and ran away from Kay Mart Stewart.  Kay moved to Maine to stay away from angry Enron workers, and her mother.
