This was hidden in the body of an AP story about Bush's visit to India to discuss our selling nuclear material:

They announced new bilateral cooperation on an array of issues from investment to trade, health to the environment, agriculture to technology, and even mangoes. Bush agreed to resume imports of the juicy, large-pitted fruit after a ban of nearly two decades.

"Mr. Prime Minister, the United States is looking forward to eating Indian mangoes," he said.

Seriously, we have decided to sell nuclear material and technology, to a nation in abrogation of the Non-Proliferation Treaty of which we are a signatory and they are not, FOR FREAKIN' MANGOES? There is no mango exception to the NPT!!!

Now I like a mango soft serve ice cream as much as the next guy, but what in the nether hell is going on?

This leaves me wondering if the President even knows what a mango is.
