The White House isn't happy that a Germany government minister compared President Bush to Hitler. Germany's justice minister (Herta Daeubler-Gmelin) told some labor union members yesterday that Bush was going after Iraq to divert attention from domestic problems. A German paper quoted her as saying "That's a popular method. Even Hitler did that."
Did he call people like Herta stoopid and tactless ideologues, too?
White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer calls the statement "outrageous and inexplicable."
That's the way press secretaries say "stoopid and tactless." |
