When Bush was President, there was a joint press conference when Bush visited France. After asking Bush a question in English, Gregory turned to Jacques Chirac and asked him in French if he wanted to make a comment.

It was obviously done to show off Gregory's knowledge of French, but more importantly as an attempt to humiliate Bush by showing that he does not speak French. Very tasteless.

In fact, according to Bill Sammon, the question Gregory had asked Bush in Paris was why were there such strong sentiments against him and his administration in Europe.

Try to imagine Gregory pulling something like that on Obama or any Democrat President.

I remember seeing that live and I also remember that W was not at all pleased and called out DNC Dave for pulling a cheap shot.
