Newsbreak - "Russia's big and so's China."

On a less serious note - and I'll admit this is way too easy and highly unfair but I get a riot reading it nonetheless - here's something else that's come out of open mike affair. It has shown much Bush is learning about the geography of the world thanks to his traveling to summits - the latest is that Russia is big and so is China!

Then, to Chinese President Hu Jintao, on Bush's right, he said:

"Where you going? Home? This is your neighborhood. Doesn't take too long to get home?"

When he hears that Hu's flight to Beijing is eight hours, Bush says, "Me too."

He continues:

"Russia's a big country and you're a big country."

Then he tells someone else, "No, not Coke. Diet Coke."

And resuming his flight geography lesson, he says to someone: "Takes him eight hours to fly home. Takes him eight hours to fly home. Eight hours. Russia's big and so's China.

And if we may venture to add a weeny bit of information for the president - so is Canada! (source here)
