Bush can't let go of the pig.....


What an insufferable dunce!

Scotsman.com News - Latest News - Roast pig guest-stars on Bush visit to Germany:

STRALSUND, Germany (Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush had more on his mind than Iran's nuclear programme, Middle East tensions and Russian press freedoms during a visit to Germany on Thursday.
He kept mentioning a wild boar, slaughtered and roasted according to local tradition, that he planned to share at a dinner with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in her home constituency at a Baltic resort.

'I'm looking forward to the feast you're going to have tonight. I understand I may have the honour of slicing the pig,' Bush told Merkel at the outset of their joint news conference in Stralsund, north of Berlin.

A few minutes later -- after discussing Iran, the Middle East, the merits of press freedoms in Russia and progress on the Doha round of free trade talks -- Bush returned to the boar.
