Polish Prime Minister Jaroslav Kaczynski arrived in Washington thinking he was going to meet with the president. It wouldíve been only right, after Poland bravely performed as "the coalitionî in the first few years of the Iraq War. But it turns out Bush forgot Poland:
According to a schedule released before Kaczynskiís arrival, he was to meet with President Bush at midafternoon, but White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said there was no such meeting on Bushís schedule. She said a meeting was planned with Vice President Dick Cheney. "If the president were to drop by, we would let you know,î she added.
