Pro-Bush poem in Pakistani textbook.

Michael posted this link in the comments, and what with the slow news day and complete oddity of it, I thought I'd put it up. Basically, a poem which described an ideal leader, strong and forceful, etc, found it's way into an English textbook for 16 year olds in Pakistan. The creepy thing is the first letters of each line spell out "President George W Bush". They claim it's an accident, but that's a pretty weird accident. They've got the story and the poem through this link at the BBC.

Thanks, Michael.
