Old joke, true again

This one made the rounds while Bill Clinton was still president, but it's just as applicable today:

After a weekend trip home to Arkansas, Bill Clinton stepped from the helicopter and onto the White House lawn. He was carrying two Arkansas-bred pigs, one under each arm.
At the bottom of the steps, the young Marine snapped to attention, saluted sharply, and said "Fine looking pigs, sir!"
Clinton turned and glared at the boy. "Son, don't you know I'm from Arkansas? These ain't pigs, they're hawgs.
The young man shot back: "Sir, the Marine begs the Commander in Chief's pardon! Fine looking hogs, sir!"
Clinton smiled with pride and the young man relaxed. The President then went on, "Thank you, son. You see this one here?" He lifted up the pig under his right arm. "I got this one for Chelsea." Then he nodded at the pig on his left. "And this one here, I got for Hillary."
At that, the Marine snapped back to attention: "Outstanding trade, sir!"

Rico says if that had really happened (and don't you wish it had?), the poor Marine would doubtless have been guarding some remote radar outpost in Greenland within the week...
