Okay, pay attention now. I’m going to talk politics for a bit.

Yes, I know: boring – well, normally it is but I have found all the links to an international, political daisy chain.

You don’t know what a daisy chain is? Ah… Okay, you know when you have a daddy who loves a mommy very much… Well, in a daisy chain there is no mommy but lots of daddies and they all love each other very much… Oh, just look it up, won’t you!

Right, so here’s the new and not so secret Transatlantic daisy chain.

1) Bush embraces Republican senator and wannabe prez John McCain:

2) John McCain loudly praises British Prime Minister Gordon Brown

3) Gordon Brown really loves London’s major Ken Livingstone

So, the only thing we need now is to show how much Ken Livingstone loves George Bush and then our daisy chain is squared. Which should be easy enough. Politicians always love other politicians – it’s the only kind of public affection they are good at, apart from kissing babies. So, let’s see how much Ken luvs his Georgie Porgie:

Eeerrr… That’s not Bush. Don’t we have another photo?

Ah. Well, maybe something nice that Ken said about Bush…?

London Mayor Ken Livingstone has launched an astonishing attack on US President George W Bush, calling him “corrupt”. Mr Livingstone made his attack during an address to schoolchildren in a debate on the Iraq war.

He said he would get as much pleasure from Mr Bush being forced out of office as he had done from the downfall of former Iraq leader Saddam Hussein.

Right, forget it. So, no daisy chain after all. I suppose I should have known that George Bush is not someone to bring anything he started to a successful finish.

It must be something of a first though: fucking up a daisy chain…
