Bush APEC visit not glitch-free (Bush Wants To Traffic Drugs To Bears)

[Khephra]

And you thought his trip couldn't get any worse?

WRONG.

snip..........

First, a White House briefing book distributed to reporters said Bush would meet with "President Megawati Soekarnoputri" of Indonesia on Saturday, even though she handed power to Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on October 20.


snip..........

In a joint public appearance with Lagos, Bush meant to take note of plans for January 30 elections in Iraq, but said instead: "I noticed today that the elections are on schedule for June the 30th."


And Bush said he and Lagos were determined "to bring drug trafficking to bear," presumably a mix-up with his frequently stated eagerness to crush that global scourge.


Referring to the relative innocence of the days before the September 11, 2001 strikes, Bush told executives on Saturday: "We thought we were protected forever from trade policy or terrorist attacks because oceans protected us."


In that same speech, Bush meant to praise the Asia-Pacific Economic Forum (APEC (news - web sites)) meeting here, but instead declared: "Our nation is a Pacific country, as well. And that's why the OPEC (news - web sites) conferences are so important."

1. You didn't think he was going to improve, did you?

He's been a horrible embarrassment for the last four years; there's no reason to think that just because he's been "re-elected" (hah!), now all of a sudden he stopped being stupid.

Cringe...

4. the Secretary of State...

and even the National Security Adviser probably ought to know who the President of Indonesia is??? but I guess the days of worrying about what other nations this country offends ended.

As to the rest of this, is he possibly following Reagan with an early case of Alzheimer's?

5. Spain's president called him after the election and he wouldn't

10. A fresh batch of Bushisms

My favorite in this cycle:

"We thought we were protected forever from trade policy or terrorist attacks because oceans protected us."

Those nasty trade policies have now learned how to cross the ocean. No more need for a land bridge.

On edit - It is fortunate that Hitler didn't have trade policies.
