The first day of school for the 4th grade class brought a new student, Suzuki, the son of a Japanese businessman.

The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty, or give me death?'"

She saw a sea of blank faces, except for that of Suzuki, who had his hand up. "Patrick Henry, 1775."

"Very good!" said the teacher. "Who said, 'Government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from this earth?'"

Again no response except from Suzuki. "Abraham Lincoln, 1863."

"Very good!" The teacher snapped at the class. "Class, you should be ashamed. Suzuki who is new to this country, knows more about our history then you do!"

She heard a loud whisper: "Fucking Japanese."

"Who said that?" she demanded.

Suzuki put his hand up. "Lee Iacocca, 1982."

At this point, a student in the back sighed, "I'm gonna puke!"

The teacher glared and asked, "All right! Now who said that?"

Again, Suzuki said "George Bush to Japanese Prime Minister, 1991."

Now furious, another student yells, "Oh yeah! Suck this!"
