Reader comment on item: Muhammad Ali v. George W. Bush

Submitted by Mord N. (United States), Dec 27, 2005 at 02:53

Our Mr. President was publicly impressing the black and Muslim populace of the country. It's P. R. It has been happening since time memorial. Unfortunately history proves always that kissing your enemy makes your enemy unafraid and that could be dangerous. Mr. President, please be aware that kissing should only be done to those you care dearly about.
