What exactly can we expect George W. Bush to tell the leaders of Canada,
Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the European Union when
they come calling at that posh resort off the coast of Brunswick, Georgia
this June 8th-10th? Will he tell them he's sorry about the weapons of mass
distruction fiasco in Iraq? Will he tell them not to worry about the low
yield nuclear weapons the US is gearing up to develop?Will he ask them
for more money for the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank?
Will there be an opportunity for the press to explore these questions with
our guests?
And what entertainments will George W. Bush provide? Will he take the
leaders on a tour of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center where our
intelligence/torture experts are trained? Will he take them to see those
nuclear submarines down at St. Mary's?Will they all take a tour of the
contaminated sites in Glynn County or up the Savannah River? Or will he be
content to just parade some of his African friends in order to demonstrate,
once again, his compassion and concern for countries whose populations are
being decimated by HIV/AIDS?
Would it be reasonable to suspect that President Bush invited the leaders
of Algeria, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa and Uganda to the posh
Sea Island resort as a distraction so he won't have to answer the hard
questions about his administration's aggressive actions and intentions?
Finally, are all of these "leaders" actually going to come and participate
in the charade?
