Iraqi Bloggers Meet President Bush at White House

Now hereÂ’s the best part: today, without prior notice, Omar and Mohammed went to the Oval Office and met with President Bush! They said that the meeting lasted about a half hour, and the President was very interested in hearing the thoughts and opinions of Iraqi citizens first hand. He wasnÂ’t aware until then of the good things that Spirit Of America has been doing over there to help the Iraqi people and assist in their obtaining democracy. Omar joked that he got to meet POTUS and they didnÂ’t even search his pockets beforehand.It looks like the Wall Street Journal noticed that the two Iraqi bloggers were in NYC and covered the story as well.
