August 9, 2006 Blair Tells Bush They Should Start Seeing Other People - SATIRE British Prime Minister Signals End to Exclusive Relationship British Prime Minister Tony Blair stunned diplomatic circles today by telling President George W. Bush that the time had come for the two men to start "seeing other people." The announcement came as a shock to many observers of the international scene because the British prime minister and the U.S. president had been virtually inseparable since Mr. Bush took power in 2001. But in telling the president that he wanted to see other people, Mr. Blair seemed to be leaving little doubt that the exclusive relationship between the two men was, for all intents and purposes, over. "I was absolutely blindsided by the news," said Russian President Vladimir Putin. "I saw them together at the G-8 summit, and they seemed so happy -- I had no idea they were having problems." Australian Prime Minister John Howard, however, seemed less surprised by the news: "Everyone knows how hard it is to keep a long-distance relationship going." It was, perhaps, at the G-8 summit that the cracks in the Blair-Bush relationship first began to show, as the U.S. president was seen massaging the shoulders of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Hours later, perhaps in retaliation, Mr. Blair was seen caressing the inner thigh of French President Jacques Chirac. At a joint appearance at the White House today, Mr. Bush made one last appeal to Mr. Blair to see if the two men could work things out, but Mr. Blair's response appeared to leave little hope: "It's not you, Mr. President -- it's me." Elsewhere, Lindsay Lohan announced that she would entertain troops in Iraq, igniting calls for an immediate withdrawal. www.borowitzreport.com Waste Someone's Time: Forward to a Friend: http://mcsv.net/cgi-bin/redir?MCid=8vEiMq4kbIy17019m5CK&[EMAIL PROTECTED]&rec=6561 Sign up today for your own Borowitz Reports, click the link below or paste it into your browser. http://mcsv.net/cgi-bin/redir?MCid=nf4pz1r5pAy17019m5CK ***Andy's Last Summer Show - August 21*** Come see Andy's last show of the summer on Monday, August 21.
