Heard this morning on the radio, George Bush greeting the Secretary General of the United Nations:
“Hey! Kofi! How are ‘ya?”
I can imagine that he’s wandering around the floor of the General Assembly now, shaking hands with delegates and saying “‘Sup, dude?”
Ah, our frat boy president.
Of course, this is all a calculated move to make him appear like “one of us,” a plain-spoken guy. But it also shows a complete lack of respect for anyone else — what else is new?
I’ll bet that White House staffers don’t feel that they can just greet Dubya with a hearty “Hey! George! What’s up?”
