These clowns are our world leaders. G-8 behavior tells all.

[LuckyLib]

The G-8 was as close to a circus as it gets. Newsweek reports a behind the scenes look at our fearless leader (who could hardly stand sitting still through endless meals and meetings) cracking one-liners that no one gets, and screaming "Cell phone violation!" to a Chinese security agent who answers his phone. When he gets tired, he announces, <snip> "I'm going home," he says to a room full of prime ministers. "I'm going to get a shower. I'm just about meeting'd out."

The other world leaders arrive that evening, and the official summit begins with a lavish feast. The dinner is something out of a Fellini epic, staged at the magnificent Peterhof Palace, built by Peter the Great. The scene is a uniquely Russian mix of historical grandeur, political power and touristy kitsch. The Russians offer a seven-course meal including caviar and beef stroganoff (maybe Chirac has a point), served by waiters wearing powdered wigs. Outside, a bear dressed in a green tutu with pink polka dots performs tricks. Inside, Chancellor Merkel starts to tell the story of a rare wild bear that was recently shot and killed in Germany. This prompts Japan's Junichiro Koizumi to reel off every bearlike word in his English vocabulary. "Teddy bear," he says for no apparent reason. "We must bear criticism. Unbearable." The leaders all start giggling.

1. So, at least we don't thave the ONLY buffoon-in-chief. Though that's

certainly not any consolation. At least for me.
