Globe and Mail: "Bush prefers our pretty boy to his pretty boy"
Note: this is the title to this story as it appears on A1 of today's print edition. The title has been changed on the electronic version to the less provocative "Bush prefers Martin spokesman to his own." Scott Reid is PM Paul Martin's senior strategist.

...


Mr. Bush wandered over during Mr. Reid's chat with the Prime Minister. Mr. Reid introduced himself and shook hands with Mr. Bush.

"Well, what do you do for this guy?" the President asked as he pointed to the Prime Minister.

"Well, you know, sir, I can't really say," Mr. Reid said. “It's not that I don't want to. It's just that, you know, I don't really know from day to day.”

The President chuckled. "Well, you got a pretty face," he told the surprised Mr. Reid. He wasn't done. "You got a pretty face," he said again. "You're a good-looking guy. Better looking than my Scott anyway."

9. I sense a remake coming on...
Where an unprincipled head of state lures other heads of state to his House of Perversion, hidden deep in the piney woods of a large southern state and subjects them to unspeakable acts of perversion until they succumb to his twisted view of the world...
