Or yours either; or yours, over there by the potted plant

I'm starting to think maybe we should all just speak French. Or Swahili. Or British, even - because this English thing just doesn't seem to be working out.

For example, our Dubya (Yale '68, Harvard '75 - so you know he has the finest of educations) recently said...

You can't have an ideology that works if you say to half the population in a part of the world, you have no rights. You can't say to a group of people, my ideology is better than freedom, and if you speak out you're going to get -- you'll be tortured....

But we need people in America who can go and say to people, living in freedom is not the American way of life, it is a universal way of life. We're not saying your democracy has to be like yours.

...to the US University Presidents Summit on International Education, no less. (And yes that's from the White House web site, evil spy cookies and all).

See what I mean? Not working out at all.
