Olmert Does Borat
Did you catch Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert doing a Borat impression at the White House press conference today with President Bush?
Borat: “We support your war of terror. … I hope you kill every man, woman and child in Iraq, down to the lizards!… And may George W. Bush drink the blood of every man, woman and child in Iraq!”
Olmert: “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.”
