Iraq War: Sometimes a Few Words Say It All

Talk about a sentence that speaks volumes. Yes, it came from President Bush:

<< Bush scoffed at a question seeking his reaction to [German Chancellor Gerhard] Schroeder's statement on Thursday that international law must apply to the awarding of the [reconstruction] contracts [in Iraq].

<< "International law? I better call my lawyer," he said. >>

I was watching this live on CNN. This had to be a line that he and his advisors prepared to treat the whole thing as a joke, but he flubbed it.
When he was asked the question, he kinda spit out the line arrogantly, then added some other remarks, then said the line again in a more joking manner.
