Excuse me... but this @sshole is talking about the press conference that followed. What in the hell does that have to do with Bush. The press asked the questions, Bush didn't ask the questions. I thought from what we read here on FR that it went as well as can be expected.
Standing next to the most powerful man in the world, any one is going to look a little like he's sucking pond water.
As for what Bush said, it will be prophetic. Either Putin leads the way or he doesn't. If he lead the way we will help him. Contrary to what the press and the liberal dems think, this president talks the talk and walks the walk. He not going to say one thing in a inaugural speech and something different to the world.
It doesn't work like that anymore.
"Now watch this drive."
Heh-heh. Need some wood?
