Bush in Germany: With a Hush and a Whisper, Bush Drops Town Hall Meeting with Germans
During his trip to Germany on Wednesday, the main highlight of George W. Bush's trip was meant to be a "town hall"-style meeting with average Germans. But with the German government unwilling to permit a scripted event with questions approved in advance, the White House has quietly put the event on ice.
The Washington Post reported "Somewhat ironically, according to the transcript of the public part, the first question was about free speech -- in Russia."
