Re: [The Saxophone Club] George Bush

If I remember correctly the controversy caused last time was because
that version wasn't quite as delicately phrased as Dave's yesterday!

The uproar it caused was almost as big as the time someone said they
didn't like Charlie Par.... no let's not go there again!!!!!!!
Cheers all.
