the story is the second one down.
They call it "Bed-gate." The British press has been hammering Foreign Secretary Jack Straw this week for sleeping on a bed in Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice 's private room on her plane -- while she slept on the floor out in the aisle -- on the duo's surprise flight Sunday from London to Baghdad.

"Ungallant behaviour" sniffed the Daily Mail of London. The paper quoted a "Whitehall insider" as saying: "Jack Straw has always had a reputation for being polite, but ineffectual. Now it would seem that he is not even polite." Ouch!

The News & Star snapped that Straw was "dreamily besotted" with Rice and "fawning" over her during her protest-plagued visit to his home town of Blackburn. "Quite nauseating," the paper concluded.

For his part, Straw says he was "mortified" to find that Rice had slept in the aisle.

"She offered me the use of the sofa bed in her room," he explained the next day. "I asked if there were proper alternative arrangements available, and she said yes."
