Condi: Kofi?
George: No, thanks.
Condi: You want Kofi?
George: No.
Condi: You don't want Kofi.
George: No. But now that you mention it, I could use a glass of milk. And then get me the U.N.
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Not Yassir! The guy at the U.N.
Condi: Kofi?
George: Milk! Will you please make the call?
Condi: And call who?
George: Who is the guy at the U.N?
Condi: Hu is the guy in China.
George: Will you stay out of China?!
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: And stay out of the Middle East! Just get me the guy at the U.N.!
Condi: Kofi.
George: All right! With cream and two sugars. Now get on the phone.
(Condi picks up the phone.)
Condi: Rice, here.
George: Rice? Good idea. And a couple of egg rolls, too. Maybe we should send some to the guy in China. And the Middle East. Can you get Chinese food in the Middle East?

Not to mention modifications have been overdone over the decades since Abbott and Costello did the original. Trite is the nicest thing that can be said about it.

By the way, the same exact thing was circulated in 1988, with the part of Condi Rice played by George H.W. Bush, and the part of Dubya played by Dan Quayle. I have also seen it with Janet Reno and Hillary Clinton.

The original Abbott and Costello "Who's on first?" was indeed funny and still is. However, all the modifications have palled over the years.
