Still Crazy After All These Years

McCain’s unwillingness to commit to meeting Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero (and, of course, the fact that he can’t seem to recall where Spain is) is amusing and all, but it brought something interesting up that I hadn’t realized – Bush has been shutting out Zapatero for years. This is, frankly, insane. Even at this late stage, I find it hard to believe that the president is a man so petty and so vindictive that he refuses to meet the leader of a European ally because of a decision well within the rights of the Spanish government. My hat is off to you, President Bush. Who knew you could keep the romance in the relationship after all this time?
