Overheard between Bush and Cheney
Ran into this transcript at
Smug Nugget:
Hu's on the White House Lawn
Bush: Look Dick. You're the Vice-President. You must know all the world leaders.
Cheney: I certainly do.
Bush: Well you know I've never met most of them. So you'll have to tell me their names, and then I'll know who runs what.
Cheney: I'll tell you their names, George, but you know it seems to me they give these world leaders now-a-days very peculiar names.
Bush: You mean funny names?
Cheney: Strange names . . . like Mwai Kibaki.
Bush: Your whatty?
Cheney: Mwai Kibaki, the President of Kenya.
Bush: Oh.
Cheney: Let's see. Who else should you know? Putin's in Russia, Chirac's in France, Hu's in China . . .
Bush: That's what I want to find out. I heard that last one's coming to visit today.
Cheney: I said Hu's in China.
A wonderful reworking of a
classic...
