Bush and the Portuguese language

The President of the United States, while discussing budgets issues, gave learning the Portuguese language as a second language an example of a wasteful project.

Bush is free to decide how to spend the budget money but he is, obviously, unaware that Portuguese language is the fifth most spoken language in the world.

Shouldn’t the Portuguese diplomacy act accordingly and manifest its disapproval?

Wastage is most certainly the time spent and space used up on this blog talking about Bush…
