I always thought the Ceann Comhairle's instruction to Eamon Ryan that "The Deppity should not provoke the Minister", as he wiped the floor with a Minister, was one of the funniest Green stories ever.
Today I came across this one:
When President Bush came to Mainz last February to shake hands with Schröder for the cameras and pronounce a new day in German-American relations, he was introduced to a tart-looking but not-quite-familiar man.
"Hello, what's your name?" Bush said to Joschka Fischer.
"My name is Mr. Fischer," deadpanned Germany's then-foreign minister. "What's your name?"
Methinks he'll get a big hug from Carole Coleman whenever the next meet! :twisted:
