    A president can speak and act in the name of his country. While he's at work, everybody expects him to do so. President G.W. Bush just showed the world how an US-american guy treats his female peers. Bush demonstrates the American way of politeness ^ Here are some text versions of the story: http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Bush_massages_German_Chancellor_Merkel_at_0718.html http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,204939,00.html

    I completely agree with you. It's entirely reasonable to suggest that our US president embodies, in every way, the thoughts and opinions of 150 million American males. In fact, we are all clones.

      You must... The like for me was a short video of W giving the German Chancellor a brief shoulder rub.

      OK. Saw what you described this time. No idea what happened last time.

The moment they heard this all the smiling face turned into a sad looking face and one of them farted. So I had to leave the place as soon as possible." - Mr.Prakash 24/04/2004

        I guess that's true, although I recall something about a cigar...

              Given the location of the cigar, that would be quite a trick.

                No, stem cell research is banned to insure no Democrats are cloned...;P

                    I think the problem with stem cell research rests in the potential in treating damage to the brain, heart, and spine, none of which most politicians have.

                        May I recommend getting your superior to give you a good massage? Gives you leverage for the next salary negotiation. :rolleyes:

                          What a catch 22! In order to appreciate stem cell research, all of the above is required.
