Ho ho ho! That's a good one.
Some staffer screws up on Kerry's side, and its a major deal.
Bush, candidate for President of the United States, the most powerful position in the world, does not know the names 3 out of 4 leaders of 'hot spot' countries that were in the news almost every day at the time (2000). And that's a nit?
I can see the conversation now:
Bush: Hello! This is George W Bush, the most Powerful Man in the World. I'm calling to talk to a Mr...uh, General. I can name the general. General....Pervy-Dude! Are you there?
Musharraf: Who IS this?
Bush: Why it's me! George! Don't you remember? Invaded two of your neighbors?
Musharraf: Ah, yes. President Bush. Have you found that bin Laden fellow yet?
Bush: No, Pervy-Boy, we haven't. I was hoping maybe you guys had seen him.
Musharraf: No, Mr President, I'm afraid we've been busy staring down those Indian dogs.
Bush: I know what you mean, Pervy-Man. I've had a few distractions of my own in that country near you...now, what was the name of that...? Darn, where is Condie when you need her...?
Yup, Bush is a real wiz-banger. |
