Wonder why Putin didn't disclose this in his press conference with President Bush.

Had to get out of country first. This has to be a low blow to algore.

I think that GW let Putie know that he has about 1.5 strikes against him re his support of $oddomite and selling the Iranians nuclear how tos and tech. Remember GW met him at Camp David instead of GW's Crawford ranch. The next step would be a Rose Garden Photo Op.

So Putie had to go back to Russia to consolidate some agreements he made with GW.
