Bush pulls a Cheney on the new Mexican President
By: John Amato on Friday, July 7th, 2006 at 12:23 AM - PDT

On Larry King last night, Bush was asked this:

KING: We’re back with the Bushes. And the Mexico elections have been decided, apparently, and the conservative, Mr. Calderon, narrowly wins. Any thoughts?

BUSH: I look forward to working with whomever the Mexican people have elected and…

KING: Do you know him?

BUSH: I don’t know him. Looking forward to getting to know him.

KING: Apparently he won. I’m glad to bring you the news.

BUSH: You sure did.

Now let’s go to this news report :

Calderon wants to rely on Mexico’s many free-trade accords to create jobs and crack down on rising crime, and says he’ll try to smooth U.S. relations without letting Washington dominate. I want to establish a very constructive relationship without bowing my head and lowering my eyes to the Americans," Calderon said in heavily accented English during an interview with The Associated Press. I have met with President Bush several times. I have interviewed with President Bush and several members of the American Congress, and I know it’s possible to establish a more constructive relationship, and that would be very good for both countries."

Bush said it with such certainty that it makes one wonder.

1. Is he lying or just plain clueless? I don't think he's the kind of
person (word used loosely) who lets things like details clutter his mind. LOL
Is he done yet?

10. Bush is really sort of odd in what he speaks.
I fear I turned him off years ago and now wait to see what his 'clearing up guys' say. The talking points seem to be what the country is run on any how and I guess they have an office in the WH that makes them up daily.

9. W at one time denied he knew Lay; on LK he said he knew him
W used Lay's plane in 2000 campaign; Lay may have stayed at the WH a few times.

6. Translation Service
Based on what he said about Ken Lay

I Don't Know him = I Did Something Illegal to assist him

Guess * was thinking of those ballots in the dump.

7. They've met, but Bush doesn't "know" him, ie,"hasn't looked into his eyes"
Bush doesn't really know you until he's used his freakish "peer into your soul thru your eyeballs" powers that were granted to him by God (or possibly Professor Xavier)
