Has Bush totally lost what was left of his mind?

Free trade with Colombia? Let's not forget Mark Penn is pushing for this too. His company has been aggressively trying to work out a deal here.

Edited to add after disgusting response to reporter about naming her baby Georgia:puke: His arrogance level is rising past the 10 mark.

8. Israel sold five US army helicopters to the Colombian Drug Cartel.

IDF choppers in service of drug cartel

American officials demand Israel provide explanations for how U.S.-made choppers sold to Israel ended up in service of Columbian drug cartel. Incident may cloud relations between countries
Itamar Eichner

Another diplomatic incident threatens to taint U.S.-Israeli relations: The American government has recently demanded Israel clarify how five U.S.-made helicopters sold to Israel in the mid-70s found their way into the hands of a Columbian drug cartel.



According to American sources, the military copters currently serve the drug mafia in the South American country.


Top diplomatic sources fear that this incident will once again heat-up tensions between Israel and the U.S. and cloud the strategic dialogue between the two countries, which is scheduled to renew in November, after talks were suspended for more than a year-and-a-half.


Kosher deal went sour


The dubious affair, which was already investigated by the Israeli Defense Ministry, and later turned over to the hands of the police, was uncovered about two years ago.


Investigators revealed that the Defense Ministry signed a deal with an Israeli company three years ago, contracting it to negotiate the sale of five IAF helicopters for a sum of USD 100,000 per aircraft.

10. Exactly! Nothing to lose...which I guess is why he feels free to
do whatever the hell he pleases: run roughshod over the country, the Constitution, the Congress, the courts, and most certainly, We the People.

9. Hopefully, this will be his last press conference ever and
the American people can get on with fixing all that he has destroyed.

12. I guess it did sound surprised...I know he's been secretly trying to
shuffle this deal behind the scenes. guess I didn't think he would actually be so bold as to tell us.

14. Well, in order to lose his* mind, he* had to have one to begin with.

15. Yes, years ago.
And keep in mind, there wasn't much "mind" to lose in the first place.

The Elite Son hasn't ever been the sharpest tack on the board... :eyes:
