I heard a reporter on radio yesterday contrasting the palace-limo-great art museum-caviar of Putin's hospitality vs ranch-pickup truck tour-BBQ hospitality of Bush. So what? Bush OWNS his property and extended the warmth of real friendship to Putin and his wife......they LIKED it!!!!!! (I wouldn't mind going to the ranch myself!)
