The president of Peru joked about stopping for gasoline on his way to lunch in Washington today. "We had to refuel the car on my way," said President Alan Garcia, "and much to my surprise, I realized that the fuel and gas station both belong to Venezuela."

The free-trading president’s joke about the Citgo gas stations of Venezuela’s capitalist-baiting and George Bush-bashing Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was intended for calculated irony with an audience listening to his plea for free trade between the United States and Peru. It worked, much to the delight of a luncheon audience that also enjoyed Garcia’s report on what Bush had pledged to him this morning at the White House about getting that Peruvian Trade Promotion Agreement to the U.S. Congress for ratification - "as soon as possible," Bush promised his Peruvian counterpart, who made this pointed political observation: "The question is, what Congress?"
Tune in next week to heard what Néstor Kirchner has to say about American/N. Korean foreign policy and what's the deal with those giant Burger King cheeseburgers?

They were part of Axis & Allies. But playing them kinda sucked if you broke it down past two players.

Communists that is, not Venezuela

Bush should have hit him with how expensive it is to send the twins to college, and if he had stolen from the Treasury of his country and cut bait to France, he could have afforded the Sorbonne AND looked forward to re-election in 10 years!

That would imply a certain knowledge of world affairs on the part of the president, however.

I was in a guild with a troll shaman named Nesstor. I got all confused, especially since he was a Vegan.

We're going to need someone to find the SNL clip of Ferrell playing Bush talking about his Axis of Evil. Which if my memory serves included Enron, Japan(because they belonged to the first Axis of Evil, and **** Cheney. Make it happen people!

A Message From the President of the United States

President George W. Bush.....Will Ferrell




Announcer: The following is an address by the President of the United States.

President George W. Bush: Good evening, America. I'm very happy to be back in this country, after my very successful trip in the Pacific Rim. I'm heartened to hear that, for the most part, the people of this country show strong support for my agenda. However, lately, there are some who are beginning to criticize this administration. Maybe these people don't understand - America is presently at war. Not just a war on terrorism; but we are engaged in a deadly stand-off with an Axis of Evil. You know who I'm talking about - Iran, Iraq, and one of the Koreas.

But my Axis of Evil doesn't seem to interest the people out there. Some people just want to talk about the economy, and budgets, and Enron. I bet most of you out there don't even understand Enron. I sure as heck don't! It hurts my head to think about it. So, from now on, Enron will be part of my Axis of Evil. I don't want to hear anything else about Enron, unless our military has pounded it into submission. So, look out, Enron - you're now part of the

So is the Economy. I don't like the way this economy is acting; not very American, it's evil! The economy is now a part of my Axis of Evil.

Also, I don't like Sen. Tom Daschle. You know why? He's very critical. You know where that leads him? You got it. He's now part of the Axis of Evil.

So, quick recap - that's Iran, Iraq, Enron, the Economy, and Daschle, and one of those Koreas. They all form a terrible Axis of Evil, standing in the way of all that we as Americans value.

And don't forget France. The French don't like me saying "Axis of Evil", so guess what? They're now a part of the very same Axis of Evil that they don't like me saying. How do you like them apples, France? Next time, you keep your mouth shut. You mess with Texas, and it's straight to the Axis of Evil, got it?

Germany, Italy, Japan - they were the original Axis of Evil. Maybe they thought I would forget, but I didn't. They're back in!

Here's one you probably didn't expect - Richard Cheney. Now, he's up to something, and I don't like it! He's never around. If I'm in the White House, he's not. If I'm on a plane, no where in sight. He's very sneaky; not to mention, scary. I'm putting him in the Axis of Evil - for now.

Evil Knievel's going in the Axis of Evil - but that's a no-brainer. But Dr. Evil? No; he makes me laugh, so he's out.

So, you see, America? There's nothing to fear. Everything's fine. You go out and buy your new cars, fly on airplanes, and invest in K-Mart. Don't listen to what the economists say. Why? Because they like math, and math is very much a part of the Axid of Evil.

And you know what else is part of the Axis of Evil? "Live, from New York, it's Saturday Night!"

It's just such an easy target. There can't possibly be much sport in it. It's rather like making fun of the last kid off the short bus.

But then again, if someone throws you a hanging slider, don't you have a moral and ethical obligation to knock that sucker out of the ballpark?

Quite possibly one of the best ways to describe Bush I've seen in a long time.
