ARTICLE SNIPPET: “President Bush came down with a stomach ailment Friday at the G-8 summit in Germany and is resting in his room.

“I’m not sure if it’s a stomach virus yet or something like that,” Dan Bartlett, counselor to the president told reporters. “He’s just not feeling well in his stomach,”

Although ill, the president did meet for an hour with French President Nicolas Sarkozy, but, as a precaution, the meeting took place in Bush’s private room.

“The president felt that they established a real personal rapport,” Bartlett said, adding that they discussed s myriad of issues, including Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan, Darfur, trade and missile defense.

Dr. Richard Tubb, Bush’s doctor, is monitoring the president’s health, Bartlett said.”

“Counselor: Bush stomach ailment ‘not serious’”
Associated Press - June 8, 2007 4:33 AM ET

HEILIGENDAMM, Germany (AP) -

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Dan Bartlett has told reporters Bush has an upset stomach but he’s not sure if it’s a virus or something the president ate that didn’t agree with him.

Aides say Bush was dressed and about to meet with France’s new president this morning when he realized how sick he felt. A doctor was called, Bush scrubbed an appearance at a summit session and France’s President Nicholas Sarkozy came to see him.

Bartlett says Bush is going ahead with a visit to Poland.”

The exact timeline would be interesting. Was this before or after the final cloture vote that failed to deliver his legacy of amnesty for millions of illegals?
