Send in the clowns

Question, Dear Reader: Who's dumber, U.S. President George W. Bush or Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert?

Hard to say.

We in the Middle East have followed the American policy in Iraq for a long time, and we are very much impressed and encouraged by the stability which the great operation of America in Iraq brought to the Middle East. We pray and hope that this policy will be fully successful so that this stability which was created for all the moderate countries in the Middle East will continue.
