Ted replied to Twfowler; As I understand it, it wasn't a trick question.....it was the equivalent of someone coming up to you and saying, "Pres. Cashew is on TV, telling the American people to cut back on their energy consumption." Is it unreasonable for us to expect that you should know that the President's name is Clinton and not Cashew?

Actually.. Rick Mercer, the comic who posed as a reporter, asked Bush this TWICE about "Jean Poutine" within the span of about 15-20 mins or so.. Both times he didnt know that this was an obvious error.. whats even more amusing was that his aides were standing there both times and didnt interject... now.. why I may give mr twfowler a point for saying he didnt have tine to think about it the first time... shouldnt his aides have said something to him about it so the NEXT time he got asked it, it wouldnt occur? Thats what scary about that bunch getting into the White House.. they have no concept of foreign policy..

By the way.. I hear that Bush didnt know or at least got the Russian President's name wrong (Putin) Is this true? I realize Canada is sort of taken for granted south of the border and perhaps not knowing the Prime Minister's name is pardonable to a certain degree, but not knowing the Russian President's name? Ouch... scary
