And George Walker Bush jr - was not even able to pinpoint who had doing a coup in 1999 - and he continued to use the tittle of mr Sheriff - and when asked - or pushed to ask what the name was, he just continued to just call him the General... With a rather blank look in his face.... A man who could not even get the name of the general who had control over Nuclear weapons in Pakistan - was then given the reign to the whole arsenal of the US, when he was given the presidency in 2000...
