I saw this this morning and though, “Oh, lord. Bunch of children.” Then Chrenkoff swoops in and saves the day, turns the tables, and generally earns multitudinous mixed metaphors.

Chrenkoff – The joke’s on “USA Today”

Drudge reports: “President Bush addressed Slovakian citizens on the merits of freedom during an open air public address in Bratislava on Thursday. But a cropped photo in USA TODAY showed Bush under the words ‘BRAT’!”

Well, the joke on them – in many Slavic languages, the word “brat” means “brother” – which was my first thought when I saw the photo without reading the rest of the story: “How nice of ‘USA Today’ to underline the closeness of the relationship between President Bush and the Eastern European countries!”

heeheehahoo!
