Yesterday, President Bush tried to prematurely cut off a joint press conference in Romania with the country’s president Traian Basescu, even though “as a matter of courtesy and protocol, the host decides when such an event is over.” Today, the Washington Post’s Peter Baker reports that Bush also left a NATO summit meeting early:
Enough is enough, it seems. With the NATO summit meetings consistently running two hours over schedule most of the day, President Bush abruptly got up and left the last formal session of the day, not bothering to wait for an official summit photograph of all the leaders.
Bush is no fan of windy meetings and evidently had had his fill. He left behind Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates to represent him for the rest of the session, which concerned NATO operations in Afghanistan, but his departure was so sudden and unexpected that he left some of his motorcade behind, inculding his press pool, when he got into his car and headed back to his hotel.

So?
Seriously pathetic, and a disgrace, he's an imbecile and a drunk should we expect better?
No one can only wonder what would be said if a Democrat President did that. We have man/woman dying Afghanistan yet Bush can't be bothered to stay and discuss their safety. Yes
TGCN your right it was Mr. Jack Daniels and Mr. Weed calling for the Gerbil to come out and play.
