Bush Rejects Saddam Debate, Offers Chili Cookoff

(2003-02-24) -- U.S. President George Bush today dismissed Saddam Hussein's invitation to debate, but the former Texas Governor challenged the Iraqi dictator to a chili cookoff.

Mr. Bush said he would meet the Mr. Hussein at a location of his choosing for a competition under the auspices of the International Chili Society.

"If you want to talk about a global organization that has my respect," he added, "There's none greater than the International Chili Society. They understand the importance of the rule of law."

Mr. Bush said he'll use the recipe that won the 2002 World Championship. It's called Warning Shot Chili.

"Give me an onion, a shoelace and a Mr. Coffee and I'll make you some Hobo Chili."

"So will Saddam eat his own special Anthrax chili?"

I doubt it. But it would be nice to shove some hot peppers down his throat without the benefit of water.

I think he was taking a serious jibe at the UN:

"If you want to talk about a global organization that has my respect," he added, "There's none greater than the International Chili Society. They understand the importance of the rule of law."

Funny thing, I can actually see George W proposing such a deal.

Click on the link for Warning Shot Chili and read that recipe. It's so hot I had to run for a glass of ice water.

Any proposal from the site that gave us the Axis of Weasels must be given serious consideration.
