Can we have it any more in-our-faces? Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said this past Monday that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was forced to abstain from a United Nations resolution on Gaza that she helped draft after Olmert placed a phone call to President Bush.
"I said, 'Get me President Bush on the phone,'" Olmert crowed in a speech in the Israeli city of Ashkelon. "They said he was in the middle of giving a speech in Philadelphia. I said I didn't care: 'I need to talk to him now,'" Olmert said. "He got off the podium and spoke to me."
Take that, Beyaaaatch!
Olmert boasted that once he gave his orders made his case to Bush, the president called Rice and told her to abstain. "She was left pretty embarrassed," Olmert said.
Fucking pathetic. And we wonder why the world hates the United States.
