Air Force One crashed in the middle of rural America. Panic stricken the Secret Service mobilized and descended on the farm. When they got there, the wreckage was clear. The aircraft was totally destroyed with only a burned hulk left smoldering in a tree line that bordered a farm. Secret Service descended upon the smoking hulk but could find no remains of the crew or the President's staff. To their amazement, a lone farmer was plowing a field not too far away as if nothing at all happened. They hurried over to surround the man's tractor. "Sir," the senior Secret Service agent asked, panting and out of breath. "Did you see this terrible accident happen?" "Yep. Sure did." The man muttered. "Do you realize that is the President of the United States airplane?" "Yep," said the farmer. "Were there any survivors?" the agent gasped. "Nope. They were all killed," the farmer said. "I buried them all myself. It took most of the morning." "The President of the United States is dead?" The agent gulped in disbelief. "Well," the farmer sighed, obviously wanting to get back to his work. "He kept saying he wasn't ... but you know what a liar he is."
