'BUSHwhacked'. 13 August, 2008
- Date
- 2008
- Reference
- DCDL-0007319
- Description
Shows Russian Prime Minister Putin being soundly whacked over the head by American President Bush. Refers to Russia's heavy military response to Georgia's attempt to define its borders. There is a play on the words 'Bush' as in President George Bush and 'whacked' meaning being hit and 'bushwhacked' meaning 'to make one's way through thick woods by cutting away bushes and branches'. There is a probable reference also to the '"Bushwhacked" MP3 files [which] are satirical speeches created from parts of United States president George W. Bush's orations. The recordings were created by UK comedian Chris Morris'. (ref Wikipedia)
