Not so funny

FIRST he thanks Australian Prime Minister John Howard for sending troops to Iraq. Then he says English is his “second language” and how happy he is to be at the OPEC summit meeting (instead of APEC).

For President George W Bush, it’s funny. To the rest of us, it’s disgraceful that the ‘leader of the free world’ behaves like this while the Middle East remains in turmoil and people are losing their lives. When he goes, he should try a comedy titled The Road To Nowhere (with apologies to Hope and Crosby).
