cukup banyak orang, warga dunia ini yang ingin
"menyanthet" bush, tidak hanya orang di indonesia
saja. beberapa hasil proyek penyanthetan tsb.
mungkin bisa dilihat dari berita di bawah ini.
selama kunjungan Bush ke Asia-Pasifik kemarin
banyak kesialan yang menimpa anggota keluarga
Bush atau lingkungan gedung Putih atau pengawalnya:
<1> dimulai dari kekalahan Partai Republik di dalam
Pemilu untuk HOR dan Senat.
<2> waktu Bush hendak terbang berangkat ke Indonesia,
pesawat Airforce 1 Boeng 747 nya mengalami
gangguan mekanik, sehingga Bush terpaksa
ganti menumpang pesawat cadangan Boeing 757
<3> anak perempuannya kecopetan tas ( kehilangan
handy & credit card ) waktu makan di restoran
di Argentina - meskipun dia dalam pengawalan
agen Secret Service
<4> Sewaktu mampir ke Hawai dalam perjalan kembali
ke Washington, mungkin orang menyangka keadaan
sudah aman, karena Hawaii ini sudah masuk
teritori AS. Ternyata di sini terjadi 2 insiden
lagi:
-> Greg Pitts, yang menjadi manajer perjalanan
rombongan Bush/White House ke Asia-Pacific
tiba-tiba di serang, dipukuli dan dirampok
oleh seseorang hingga harus diperiksa di
Rumah sakit ( + kehilangan dompet & paspornya ).
-> Waktu mengawal rombongan mobil Bush ke pangkalan
militer di Hawaii, 3 Polisi Pengawal bersepedamotor
di dalam rombongan itu terlibat dalam kecelakaan
/tabrakan sehingga mengalami luka yangserius.

Presidency falling apart at the seams for Bush and his entourage
----------------------------------------------------------------
By Rupert Cornwell in Washington
Published: 23 November 2006
His foreign policy is in tatters. He has just suffered a sweeping
electoral defeat. And now - from Buenos Aires to Hawaii and Vietnam -
even the clockwork-like operation to protect and ferry around
George Bush and the rest of America's first family seems to be
coming apart at the seams.
In the first of four incidents in the space of 48 hours this week,
the President's 24-year-old daughter Barbara had her handbag stolen
while out in the Argentine capital on Sunday, despite the round-the-
clock protection she and her twin sister Jenna are provided by the
US Secret Service.
According to La Nacion newspaper, the two were having dinner in San
Telmo, a cobblestone district of cafés, old houses and steakhouses,
when thieves took the handbag from under their table. Agents in
their secret service detail stood at a distance, completely unaware
of the incident.
There has been no comment from the White House or a doubtless highly
embarrassed Secret Service. Barbara reportedly lost her mobile phone
and credit cards, but was not hurt. But Greg Pitts, the acting White
House travel director, was less fortunate as the President made his
way back to the US from his visit to south-east Asia and the Pacific
Rim summit in Vietnam. Mr Pitts was beaten and robbed by unknown
assailants outside a nightclub in Waikiki at 2am on Tuesday during a
stopover by the presidential party in Hawaii.
"He was knocked down, punched, kicked - his wallet and ID were
stolen," Captain Frank Fujii of Honolulu Police said. Mr Pitts also
lost his passport and his mobile phone. Though awake and alert, he
was taken to hospital because of possible concussion, a White House
spokesman said.
Hours after that incident, three local motorcycle officers in the
motorcade taking Mr Bush to a military air base for his return to
Washington were involved in a crash which left two of them seriously
injured, after their bikes skidded on a rain-drenched road as they
were about to enter the base area.
The final entry in this catalogue of mishaps were the unspecified
mechanical difficulties encountered by his Air Force One Boeing 747
during the summit trip, as it was scheduled to leave Vietnam to
ferry Mr Bush to Indonesia (where he spent six hours in talks at a
resort near Jakarta before heading to Hawaii). The problem forced Mr
Bush to take a smaller Boeing 757 back-up plane, obliging many in
the White House delegation to switch to the accompanying press plane.
