Bush and Putin - Can't Fish

Not sure if any of you guys saw it, but the front cover of today's issue of Investor's Business Daily had a photo of George Bush in a Hawaiin shirt and Vladamir Putin holding a schoolie ... and it said that Putin was the only one that caught a fish.

It's a sad day when our world leaders cannot muster up better than an 18-inch schoolie ... hopefully it helps to continuosly mend the fences but doesn't represent what our country has to offer ...

... whose been fishing in Maine and what have you been catching?

P.S. the photo was an AP photo, so it might be in other locations too.

Even the fish don't like that jerk!

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.

Bush/Putin

Glasnost, not fishing, in this regard is more important.
