Придумалась эпиграмма по-английски. Посвящается не скажу кому.

Before you trust this man, remember this:
Although he aims to please, he'll always miss.

Прочёл "aims to peace". Подумал про Буша. Заметил очитку. Расстроился (не думал, что у меня в голове угнездился такой мусор).

Да, странная очитка, действительно.

Well, I'm pretty sure I haven't seen it anywhere before ;) but yeah, the punchline is probably too obvious not to have been used before, in one variation or another.
