Some Friend, W's Mexican Amigo

September 16, 2007 12:06 PM ET | Bedard, Paul | Permanent Link

At the White House, the president has got to be muttering "some friend" when he pores over the new autobio from his old buddy Vicente Fox, Mexico's former leader. That's because Fox raps his border pal as stubborn and "the cockiest guy I have ever met in my life." Revolution of Hope, out next month, is a well-written, well-researched book about Fox's political career and presidency, which coincided with George W. Bush's. While he expresses a kinship with W, he breaks with the prez on the war and slams the GOP's immigration platform. He blames Bush's stubbornness on Iraq for bad international relations, calls his Spanish "grade-school level," and admits he didn't think Bush would ever become president. "I can't honestly say that I had ever seen George W. Bush getting to the White House," he pens.

1. "grade school level" is what bush is
all about. For some reason other the obvious, corporatemediawhores.. the US had to endure their takeover.

Hopefully we can look back in our life time and be relieved and grateful.. we came through it!

3. Fox was disgusted. And, that's not to say that Fox is some kind of anti-Bush action hero.

It's just that Vicente Fox has a functioning brain.

HIs treatment of his fellow countrymen and women by his governorship is despicable, but even he can see how utterly worthless in every fucking way President Bush is.

And, Presidente Fox found out early in Bush's regime that not only is Bush unable to ride a horse, he's scared sh**less of them.

Is there anything Bush can do well?? :shrug: MKJ
