with all due respect

Mr. Bush is said to test the mettle of his new employees by farting when they enter the Oval Office. So why is anyone insulted by the mention of a sulfurous scent left by same individual at the podium of the United Nations? If he enjoys a good fart joke, who are we to judge?
And if the shoe fits, wear it, America.
You elected a man who likes to fart in business situations for the purpose of reading a person's character through his reaction. You elected the guy you'd like to drink a beer and share a televised football game with, Viagra ads included, instead of the smart guy who would have signed the Kyoto Treaty.
So live with your flatulent leader, America. You deserve it. Don't blame Hugo for telling the truth.
