P.S., I love how the weaver chose predominantly red, white, and blue colors for his rug. So wonderful.

Amazing story. Thank God that many afghanis and Iraqis realize what Bush's leadership has meant to their world.

Sadly, thanks to the stupid laws passed in response to past public officials stupidity, I think it HAS to be put in a museum, and Bush will never get to take possession of it.

Great stuff, definitely not fit to print in the NYTwit Times.

Send to your liberal friends -- it's nails on the blackboard to them.

"One corner of the rug reads, "President George W. Bush," while the opposing corner has the words, "Number one champion."

This brings tears to my eyes. The rug is beautiful and it's wording is obviously heartfelt. Wonderful!

Can you imagine what it will be like when it's featured on a way in the future episode of 'Antique Road Show'?
