Big Fish

From the department of "You Just Can't Make This Stuff Up!":

President George W Bush has revealed to a German newspaper his best moment since he took office in 2001.

'I would say the best moment of all was when I caught a 7.5 lb (3.4 kg) perch in my lake,' he told Bild am Sonntag.

It's nice to know that he has his priorities straight.

Then again, when you have the anti-Midas presidential touch, and everything you touch turns to dross, perhaps catching a fish is a big accomplishment! (And perhaps your only real success, besides making the rich richer and increasing the value of Halliburton stock.)
