Bush To Filipino President: "I Am Reminded Of The Great Talent Of The -- Of Our Philippine-Americans When I Eat Dinner At The White House"

June 24, 2008 04:33 PM


 
President Bush met with Filipino President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo today at the White House. Arroyo was in Washington while her country tries to recover from a typhoon that devastated coastal areas and flipped a ferry carrying over 800 passengers last week. Before discussing aide for the Philippines, Bush couldn't resist beginning the sober meeting with a quip about a Filipino member of his kitchen staff. Read part of the transcript from the meeting and click here to read more about one of the "Philippine-Americans" Bush is referring to. See the excerpt below:


PRESIDENT BUSH: Madam President, it is a pleasure to welcome you back to the Oval Office. We have just had a very constructive dialogue. First, I want to tell you how proud I am to be the President of a nation that -- in which there's a lot of Philippine-Americans. They love America and they love their heritage. And I reminded the President that I am reminded of the great talent of the -- of our Philippine-Americans when I eat dinner at the White House. (Laughter.)


PRESIDENT ARROYO: Yes.

PRESIDENT BUSH: And the chef is a great person and a really good cook, by the way, Madam President.

PRESIDENT ARROYO: Thank you.



The Philippine President must be a very gracious lady.

And i'm glad that there is nothing to indicate that POTUS was ever a hobyist. Nor in the service of the US Navy.  He could have said something much higher up the gaffe food chain, like "Madam President, it's a pleasure to have you in The Oval Office, as I so often fondly remember the many wonderful hostesses at Subic Bay whose acquaintance i was so fortunate to make...."  The official transcript of that meeting would be  interesting.

Bush is not exactly one of the most eloquent speakers even when reading a canned speech.

"His heart was in the right place."  

Bush has a heart?

OK, excellent point, but it's prima facie more credible than "Bush has a brain?"

Ah, Subic Bay!! I remember the lovely "hostesses" from years gone by. Brings back memories of Olongapo City and Subic City, of Magsaysay Drive and "The Jungle."
