LOL, Bush was all buddy-buddy with him over the last few days, but his daughter just released this statement the other day:

"Mr. Bush is also said to get along well with the prime minister, Mr. Singh, even though Mr. Singh's daughter, Amrit, is a Yale-educated staff lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union who regularly detonates explosive news releases against the Bush administration. ("The public has a right to know the full truth about the treatment of detainees not just in Abu Ghraib but elsewhere in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantánamo Bay," she said in a release this month, after new photographs of abuse at the Abu Ghraib prison were made public.)"

3. He's just lucky it's not his own daughter turning the tables on him,
unlike Australia's former Minister for Immigration, Phillip Ruddock, whose daughter, a human rights lawyer, disowned him for going along with our Prime Minister's harsh refugee policies.
