A driver is stuck on the Golden Gate Bridge, where the traffic is completely stationary.
A passer-by knocks on the driver's window, so the driver rolls it down and asks what's going on.
"Terrorists are holding George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Dennis Hastert for ransom," states the person on foot. "They say that if they don't get $100 million in unmarked bills, they're going to drench the three of them with gasoline and set them on fire. So, we're going from car to car, taking up a collection."
"How much is everyone giving, on average?" asks the driver.
The collector replies, "About a gallon."
