Just taped conversation when GW and the One got together las week. It was played on TV.
It didn't happen recently, if it happened at all. According to Obama in the Audacity of Hope, it was a private conversation, and this is his memory of it. Rather self-serving on his part, I might add, since he uses GWB to diss Alan Keyes, who was his recent opponent, and is still on his case.
I am trying to set the record straight. There is no proof that Bush said this in 2005 or at all.
Actually it was reported on TV recently, the way it was played made it easy to assume it was from last weeks meeting. I have posted elsewhere to you the source of the story, and include the link below again.
I can not testify, that they are the absolute truth, but I can't say that about nearly all printed news, or comments.
