I’m binging on rotten.com tonight, and came across the following brief anecdote in their profile of President Bush (scroll to bottom):
17 Jun 2001 – Japanese Foreign Minister Makiko Tanaka returns to German Town High School in Philadelphia, where she studied for two years as a high school student. During a conversation with her former classmates, Tanaka gives her concise assessment of President George W Bush: “He is totally an asshole.”
I offer a cash reward to anyone who can find audio or video of this.
What kind of cash reward?
God that is funny — when politicians and aides pulled similar Bush-bashing stunts in Germany or Canada they got pats on the back from the PM. In Japan, you get fired! HAhahahahaha
I’d hit that
I can’t wait to read the backpedaling….
