WASHINGTON (AP) -- Despite tense relations with Venezuela, President George W. Bush says it might be OK for the South American nation to have a nuclear reactor for peaceful energy uses.
Bush acknowledged he had not heard about Venezuela's request for a reactor when asked about it Tuesday in an interview with Latin American reporters ... But he didn't reject the idea... [snip]
Ah, I read a little further. OK, Bush did think on his feet, although perhaps he shouldn't have sounded like he didn't know. But here, and the last post on the subject unless I find something big
Bush: "I guess if I were a taxpayer in Venezuela, I would wonder about the energy supply that Venezuela has," Bush said. "But maybe it makes sense. I haven't really studied the proposal."
