Bush 2 has arrived in Brussels to talk to the EU.

category international | eu | other press author Sunday February 20, 2005 21:47author by frying other fish Report this post to the editors

lets go back to the familiar games eh?

“And I like to talk about him about well, why did you do this, or why did you do that? And I suspect he likes to ask me the same questions,”

“We’ve got the framework for a good strategic relationship… I think this relationship can be invigorated,”

“Look, I think the biggest success would be twofold: one, an understanding of the war – the world we live in and the war on terror.”

“Now, the enemy hit us and .... They hit us in a gruesome way, and...

the missing word is "russia".

And so Mr bush spoke exclusively to Russian media organs in prelude to his meeting Vladimar Putin at Bratislava on the 24th of Feb 2005.

http://itar-tass.com/eng/level2.html?NewsID=1761912&PageNum=0

Julia, the PM of the Ukraine has been continuing work on basic rights for the Ukrainian peoples whose first strategic allies are the Russians.

She is hoping that their previous rights to work, a pension, health and hearing aids will continue.

Though Mr Putin is finding it hard dealing with what his communications minister described as "provacateurism" with increasing thousands of both students and pensioners demanding those rights of the new captialist friendly russian state.

Julia has expressed her wish to lead the Ukraine into a EU membership by the year 2016, and hopes that by then, the lebensraum / grande armée crew will have got a constitution together she and her peers can consider worthy of Ludwig can Beethoven.

You all know the hymnsheet.
It's going to take you a while to get it right.
obviously.

Meanwhile, thousands protested Mr Bush as he arrived in Brussels where the EU HQ stands in the former Luxembourg station, because they think he's a wanker.

Mr Bush has come to build bridges.
"pontes" in romanic languages.
Only a week after he appointed negroponte to the new post 911 role of chief intelligence digest reader. This role will mean Mr Negroponte must daily read 15 conflicting reports from 15 conflicting agencies with a combined budget of 27,000,000,000$ (excluding the revenues on patents for velcro).

This more than exceeds the annual cost of providing to the poorest of our fellow brothers and sisters of the planetary community, vaccines, water, sanitation, schooling, and decent nuclear arms.

Mr Bush will use his visit to Europe as an opportunity to remind us he is relevant.

and in the spirit of respecting democracy he will e happy to see thousands of people waving "Bush the world finds you responsible" banners.

Though he might giggle, as John Negreponte is now held to be responsible by 15 US very resentful spooky agencies varying from the familiar CIA (drop concrete blocks form airplanes) to the familiar FBI (caught Hopkins and put him ina a cage) to the familiar NSA (use over 50% of the state of Maryland's electricity) to the not so familiar MIB (very good special effects) and the Black Helicopters (use a lot of paint - don't like cows).

And Bush is probably unaware that his (Np's) deletion was sanctioned yesterday without too much fuss. {gurb mile maith agat. plausible deniabilty on that one.}

So what can we expect of the new relationship?

Well Mr Bush is looking east.
Mr Bush hasn't come to talk spanish.
And right now spanish isn't that popular in sneeky belgium, (Belgium is so full of sneakydom that even NATO / OTAN tippy toppy types won't tell the truth there) so honestly we can't expect much from this @ all.

the last 24 hours have meant moving and shaking in the old structures of "€uropa" and the internal repercussions will mean "being charming to ma cherie Connie" just don't cut the ice anymore.

Mr Bush will attend on behalf of the "free world" a commemoration of the "Great Patriotic War" when many millions of Russians, Ukranians,Baltics, Georgians, and others joined to fight fascism and nazism (though ordered by Stalin) we can be pretty sure most died having thought about God.

Luxembourg who hold the EU presidency aren't as sneeky as Belgium or Brussels or even the French and will be sort of decent to Mr Bush when they meet him. Consult your local pro-U$ pro €U for trite cliché reporting.

"never forget who you wear that -umpire's_ hat for".
(thats a ukranian play on words)
