Dzienkuje!

In what can only be described as politics once again taking charge and tackling only the tough issues, president Bush will be meeting with Nursultan Nazarbayev, the president of Kazakhstan, regarding his country's image and their agenda. A new ad blitz will take the U.S. by storm and no doubt send us all on whirlwind tours through Kazakhstan to partake of their... oil....

For those of you who don't know, the Kazakhstan government has tried their damndest to see Borat destroyed by shutting down his website and threatening him with what I'm sure are well researched legal threats such as "We reserve the right to any legal action to prevent new pranks of the kind."

His response, as usual, was pure gold:

"In response to Mr. Ashykbayev's comments, I'd like to state I have no connection with Mr. Cohen and fully support my Government's decision to sue this Jew. Since the 2003 Tuleyakiv reforms, Kazakhstan is as civilized as any other country in the world. Women can now travel on inside of bus, homosexuals no longer have to wear blue hats, and age of consent has been raised to eight years old."

Later on his website,
www.borat.kz , was suspended. An act that probably made their government look like jackasses. [LINK]
