"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure."

This is from Al-Jazeera.

The mayor of London has launched a scathing attack on US President George Bush, who has arrived in the UK on a state visit.

Ken Livingstone called Bush the "greatest threat to life on this planet that we've probably ever seen." He told reporters in London, "The policies he is initiating will doom us to extinction."

"The American agenda is sweeping everything before it, and although it's not perfect, the EU is better on environmental issues. It's a less rapacious form of capitalism."

"I don't formally recognise George Bush because he wasn't officially elected. So we're organising an alternative reception for everybody who is not George Bush," Livingstone said.
