Guardian Unlimited: Bush renames Spanish PM
The US president, George Bush, today began his European tour with a gaffe - mispronouncing the Spanish prime minister's name in a television interview.
Mr Bush was mocked during the US election campaign for his relative ignorance of international affairs, but had always maintained he could speak Spanish.
But in the interview he referred to Jose Maria Aznar as "Anzar" and employed a mangled grammar, placing the emphasis on the wrong parts of words and confusing gender.
Can Bush say or do anything without embarrassing the country? What a fucking moron.
Note to self: watch SNL this week.
