Fox calls Bush a 'windshield cowboy' and 'the cockiest'

Of course not Fox News, but Vicente Fox in his new "gossipy" tell-all book Revolution of Hope which reveals the idiosyncrasies of world leaders such as Dubya, Blair and Castro.

Bush a 'windshield cowboy,' Mexico's Fox says

Fox's book shoots from the hip. He calls Bush "quite simply the cockiest guy I have ever met in my life," needles him on his "grade-school level" Spanish and says the U.S. president seemed afraid to ride a horse during a visit to Fox's ranch.

Castro likes to drink buffalo milk, he writes. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has "Energizer Bunny hyperactivity." Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo once "proceeded to grasp me firmly by the buttocks" in a traditional greeting.

And here's Fox on seeing former Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev's birthmark in person: "It's a little like your first view of the Golden Gate bridge. . . . You think, 'Wow, it really looks like that.' "

Sounds like my kind of book.
