Now you see it...

The best protected man in the world, and he still gets his watch pinched.

Disappointing postscript: Perhaps it wasn't Albanian sleight-of-hand after all, but good old fashioned Texan caution.

I can relate to the pain in balkan states about Bush. Even if I am Netherlands born and bred. Good for that guy, obviously they have put him through the wringer (and worse) because a short time later "the watch turned up".

Does this happen to you a lot, BTW, where you have to fight your own keyboard so it will type what you want with yes or no capitals where you want them?

It is time -- more than standard time -- for Bush to answer the question of the hour: On whose watch was Bush's watch disappeared?

In any event, notwithstanding the apparent larcenous intent of one Albanian, the Albanians by and large appear to love George W. Bush and Americans don't. Help me, folks, doesn't this suggest an obvious win-win? They can have him!

Of course, if Bush became President of Albania, the Albanians might have to boost their 2007 contribution to the Coalition of the Willing from its curent level, namely, 120 soldiers. A small price to pay for a bit payoff from the U.S. I am sure Acting President Cheney would oblige in timely fashion.

With 3:13 left you see that someone takes the watch off and then there is a quick scuffle behind Bush who looks down. Several others also look down and it looks like someone it pushed. I think the watch is fine, but it definitely got removed!

I think the Bush loose trust in Albanians....After they stoled his Watch...Borat should visit Albania and give Albanians credit on doing a great job:stealing a Bush watch......

just goes to show you that if albania can steal Kosovo from its rightful owner, they can easily do the same with a watch...respect is something they have yet to learn.

Long live Borat and the Great Democratic Republic of Albania.
