A political joke, maybe

John in Carolina, who does a lovely series of Churchill stories, had this one:

A sailor jumped into the water to rescue a small boy from drowning.
A week later the sailor was accosted by a woman who asked, “Are you the man who picked my son out of the water the other night?"
“That is true, ma’am,” replied the sailor. “I am the man.”
“Ah,” said the woman. “You are the man I am looking for. Where is his cap?”

Rico says it could be recast as an Obama story all too easily...
