German President Gerhard Schroeder Accuses George W of lying in his book!!!

In his book"Decision Points" former President George W. Bush has written that he told German President Gerhard Schroeder in an Oval Office meeting on 31 January 2002 that he was determined to make diplomacy work, but would invade Iraq if all else failed. Then, he claimed falsely "that Gerhard Schroeder had betrayed him, and it would be hard to have a constructive relationship again". Mr. Schroeder responded to Bush's claims by accusing him of "not telling the truth". Though Schroeder confirmed that he had told Bush that he would "stand reliably on the side of the US", the pledge was based on the false assumption that Iraq was sheltering those responsible for the September 11 "terrorist attacks". The reactions of former Schroeder aids were scathing: "We noticed that the intellectual reach of the president of the most important nation at the time was exceptionally low," said Uwe-Karsten Heye, Mr. Schroeder's spokesman told German news channel N24. "For this reason it was difficult to communicate with him. He had no idea what was happening in the world, though I think he knew every longhorn in Texas." Bottom line: Should you somehow feel the urge to read "W"s book, take it with a huge pile of manure on the side.
