“He’s a Scotsman, kind of a — he’s not the dour Scotsman that you described him, or the awkward Scotsman; he’s actually the humorous Scotsman, the guy that — we actually were able to relax and to share some thoughts. I was very interested in his family life. He’s a man who has suffered unspeakable tragedy, and instead of that weakening his soul, strengthened his soul.
I was impressed, and I am confident that we’ll be able to keep our relationship strong, healthy, vibrant, and that there will be constant communications as we deal with these problems. As I said, he’s a problem-solver. And that’s what we need as partners. We’ve got a lot of problems we’re dealing with, and we can reach solutions. He’s a glass-half-full man, not a glass-half-empty guy, you know? Some of these world leaders say, oh, the problems are so significant, let us retreat; let us not take them on, they’re too tough. That’s not Gordon Brown. His attitude is, I see a problem, let’s work together to solve it. And for that, I’m grateful.”
– George W. Bush describing Britain’s new Prime Minister
If Gordon Brown is a Scotsman and George W. Bush favors Scottish Terriers, wouldn’t it be smart to adopt a third Scottie and name it Gordon Brown? Nickname him Gordy or Gordo – no, not Brownie… wouldn’t be prudent. In the event that critics might say the new Prime Minister is George Bush’s poodle, the President could always rebut and point out that Gordon Brown is certainly no poodle – it’s obvious he’s a Scottie.
