Anyone else see the assembly of Texas school kids, Bush and Putin?

I watch the entire thing and thought it was great. Very down to earth and reassuring. Putin and Bush each gave a little speal then took questions from the kids.
If they replay it, it's worth the time.

Man it was freakin funny! Putin's crack about selling us Alaska was hilarious, as well as Bush's Texas in August / Sybiria in the winter joke. I really loved it when Bush told that studen to listen to his mother  :)

 It's good to see our leaders having a good time with each other.  I just can't imagine Reagan and Gorby laughing and joking like this.  Clinton was to worried about his next piece of arse to joke w/ Yelsin, and old Boris was too drunk (i think) to know where he was at!  

 One thing I must add.  In my life I have met a lot of people.  To this day, of all the men I have met that were "best friends" started out hating each other and ended up fist fighting only to learn "respect" for each other durring the fight.  Afterwards, they are tight as brothers.   I'm hoping that this is the relationship we can now forge with Russia, it should have been started 10 yrs ago, but once again Clinton was more worried about popsicle than he was about world affairs.

I cracked up when the little girl ask the President if he was going to Russia, and if so, if he was going to take any kids with him?

 The President responded.  "Nooooo".  You can tell he has kids :)

Udie - isn't this the same Clinton who tried to broker agreements in both Northern Ireland and Palestine? The same Clinton who is almost universally agreed to be 'instrumental' to the Good Friday Agreement? The same Clinton who's administration was heavily involved in Bosnia and Kosovo?

In comparison, you have George W. Bush. A man who is so concerned about world terrorism, he relies on the leader of another State to fly around the world rallying support. Who until very recently thought 'General' was a common first name for Pakistani leaders.   ;)

George W Bush doesn't strike me as the master diplomat. In a few years? Maybe. Although it's good to see Russia and the US getting on so well.

 No it's the same Clinton who as a youth "dispised" the military then who as president used that military more times and on more diferent countries than any other president in our history. The same Clinton who any time his sorry bellybutton was in trouble on tv started bombing some other country, including an asprin factory in Afganastan.  The same Clinton who could have ended this in 1993 when the WTC was first attacked.  The same Clinton who let Sadam throw the UN weapon inspectors out of Iraq.  Yes the same Clinton who lied under oath at least 2 times in two diferent courts.  I can see how far his diplomacy has gotten us in the middle east. Don't worry though I don't assign all the blame to him  :)

 Dowding you are so completely wrong it makes me sick to read what you wrote and really pisses me off, but I shall try and keep my cool. IN COMPARISON [/b] We, the USA, have a President who is the son of a man who flew a TBM avenger fighting the Japanese in WW2. A President who's father was the head of the CIA, Vice President and President. A father that has first hand experience building world wide coallitions and I'm sure who wouldn't mind giving some advice to his son, the President.

 In comparison we have a President who says what he means. It may not always come out perfect, but at least you don't have to parse every freaking word that comes out of his mouth to know what he's really saying. In comparison we have a president that set up an administration that has the most experienced foriegn policy team in the history of our nation.  

 In comparison I have a President who's best strength as that everybody keeps underestimating his abilities.

You know Tony Blair has been flying around the world helping to keep the coallition together, and for that I'm very proud of him and greatful. I wish you'd show some gratitude to what my president is doing to fight this war  and maintain world peace instead of making fun of him.

George W Bush doesn't strike me as the master diplomat. In a few years? Maybe. Although it's good to see Russia and the US getting on so well.


 We shall see.

What Grunherz? No effing this, or commie that? And yes, I really do hate the US.

Fool.

Easymo - Frankly, your opinions count for little in my book too. A man who believes the opinion of an author of departure lounge fiction has some supreme, important insight into world events is living in a dream world.

Udie - You seriously believe politicians are born with convictions that are unchanged throuout their lives? For example, Tony Blair used to be a conservative in his youth and stood for election on those grounds. Now he's a champagne socialist. There's this guy Peter Hitchens who was actually a hard line Marxist in his youth - now he's as conservative as you could possibly be.

You surely don't think only Clinton is guilty of this? It's a tactic as old as the hills.

The same Clinton who let Sadam throw the UN weapon inspectors out of Iraq.

Well, I don't see what he could have done in this situation. He supported an embargo on humanitarian aid that has killed half a million Iraqi children in response (UNICEF figures), so it wasn't as though he wasn't trying.

Sure he lied. But the fact that an investigation was ever called which would put the President in that position, is quite interesting. It never happened with Kennedy, did it? And it's he highly likely he boffed Monroe while in office. She didn't keep her mouth shut either - it was a well know fact at the time.

I can see how far his diplomacy has gotten us in the middle east.

Prior to this year's violence, the Palestinians and Israelis were closer to an agreement than ever. In fact, the Israelis had made so many concessions that Sharon was able to win on that issue alone (after a little ethnic tension incitement).

The Palestinians had an amazing offer on their plates - they turned their noses up at it. And we are where we are now.

But the bottom line is - they are all the same. Only able to look at the bigger picture after their own interests are covered.

J-O-K-E Udie. Hence the smiley.

Are you saying you don't find that interview on Bush's knowledge of the world outside the US funny at all? The fact that the guy being interviewed is now the most powerful man on the planet, only makes it funnier.

Without him it still would be quite funny.

Dowding,

 I feel sorry for ya man, you've been fed some socialistic propoganda and you have fallen for it hook line and sinker.  I'd respond to everything in your post but it would be a waste of both our times.

 The only thing I think I must say is about Iraq.  Saddam lost a war, actually the war never ended officialy, just an armasist or what ever. UN sanctions haven't killed one Iraqi ever, that blood is on Saddam's hands PERIOD.  He gets aid money and suplies and gives it to his freakin army while his citizens go sick and starving.  He uses the money he makes on oil we let him sell for humanitarian reasons on weapons and weapons research.  Fact remains that he pulled enough toejam durring clintons term that we should have gone back and removed him then.

 sad sad sad...

Grunherz, after your description of genocide of Serbs in Krajna - your opinion doesn't count. I doubt that anyone can consider your nazi hallucinatiuons worth reading.

Being called a "commie" by you is a honour for any sane man.

Genocide...... Im sorry Boroda though nobody in our civil war was a perfect combatant the only people who commited systematic Gewnocide including concentration camps, murde4r factories and even rape camps were the Serbs. Im sorry that this bothers you but thats a fact, then they went and did it again in Kosovo.

You are full of toejam, and everyone on this BBS knows knows you are an unemplyed drunken unrepentant cpommunist amazinhunk who still thinks this is circa 1965 and is delighhtfully proud and boastful of your uncle killing "baby killer" US pilots in Vietnam with his SAM batteries.

Go to hell you whoopee wortheless piece of communist toejam!
