Ariel Sharon, the Israeli Prime Minister comes to Washington for meetings with George W. For the State Dinner, Laura decides to bring in a special Kosher Chef and have a truly Jewish meal.
At the dinner that night, the first course is served and it is Matzoth Ball Soup. George W. looks at this and after learning what it is called he tells an aide that he can't eat such a gross and strange-looking brew. The aide says that Mr. Sharon will be insulted if he doesn't at least taste it.
Not wanting to cause any trouble, George W. gingerly lowers his spoon into the bowl and retrieves a piece of matzoth ball and some broth. He hesitates, then swallows and a grin appears on his face. He digs right in and finishes the whole bowl.
"That was delicious," he says to Sharon. "Do the Jews eat any other parts of the Matzoth or just the balls?"
