U.S. and Germany Snuggle Up

Bush has a new best friend and its not that dashing Frenchman. Its the European leader everybody forgets about, German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The Washington Post indicates that they act like a couple of chatty teenagers who can get enough of each other. The two often talk about Iraq, Iran, and global warming, a topic that Merkel was able to woo Bush.

The relationship blossomed during a romantic weekend getaway at Crawford, Texas, better known as the Paris of the the Crawford region. Why doesn't Bush invited Mahmoud there? I'd love to read that blog entry.
