A Joke about Bashir Assad

Michael Totten shares a joke about Syrian dictator Assad:

After a national “election” in Syria, an aide comes to President Assad and says, “Mr. President, you won the election with a 99.7 percent majority. That menas only three-tenths of 1 percent of the people did not vote for you. What more could you ask for?” Assad replies, “Their names.”

Worst thing is that it’s not an unthinkable scenario.
