WHY does President Bush think he has to offer instant character assessments of the leaders he meets? It seems very bad manners but perhaps it is just the famed Texas informality at work. After his total misjudgement of Vladimir Putin on first acqaintance and some of the terrible choices he has made of people to fill senior posts, it might be thought that he would stop the practice. But no. Having spent four hours face time with Gordon Brown the President had to tell the press that the British prime minister was not the dour Scotsman they had heard about but was rather a principled man who really wants to get something done.
