5. Really? WOW that was fast.
The change came a day after Chilean security guards temporarily blocked one of Bush's Secret Service agents from entering an official dinner.

For the Sunday event, the Secret Service insisted all guests -- totaling more than 230 -- pass through a metal detector, a top level Chilean Foreign Ministry official told CNN. U.S. officials did not dispute this account.


President Ricardo Lagos believed the measure was humiliating for guests, the Chilean official said.

Instead, Bush will attend a small dinner of about 20 people in Lagos' private dining room.


It came from CNN website.

11. It isn't like these are ordinary, off-the-street civilians. . .
these are Prime Ministers and Cabinet Secretaries, assorted emissaries from our allies, and their wives and other attendants.

It must be terrible to be Bushbaby, to be so filled with fear and suspicion.

14. Our news here behind the Plastic Curtain reminds me of
Dorothy's statement in the Wizard of Oz about how quickly people come and go in Munchken Land. So it is with our news stories. Here one minute gone the next.

We're not in Kansas (or any other state of the old republic) anymore, Toto.

15. Is this what you're looking at?
Chile calls off Bush banquet after security dispute

SANTIAGO, Chile (CNN) -- Plans for a state dinner for President Bush at Chile's presidential palace were scratched Sunday after the United States insisted on security measures that Chile called unacceptable.

The change came a day after Chilean security guards temporarily blocked one of Bush's Secret Service agents from entering an official dinner.

For the Sunday event, the Secret Service insisted all guests -- totaling more than 230 -- pass through a metal detector, a top level Chilean Foreign Ministry official told CNN. U.S. officials did not dispute this account.

President Ricardo Lagos believed the measure was humiliating for guests, the Chilean official said.
