A busload of politicians were driving down a country road，all of a sudden，the bus ran off the road and crashed into a tree in an old farmer's field.
The old farmer，after seeing what had happened，went over to investigate.He then proceeded to dig a hole to bury the politicians.
A few days later the local sheriff came out，saw the crashed bus，and asked the old farmer where all the politicians had gone.
The old farmer said he had buried them.
The sheriff asked the old farmer，“Were they all dead？”
The old farmer replied，“Well，some of them said they weren't，but you know how they politicians lie.”

几天后，县治安官出来了，他看到了撞坏的公交车，然后问老农那些政客都去哪了。
