Germany prepares for Bush

A wild boar? And these security costs are simply obscene:

Officials in the eastern German state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania are feverishly preparing for a visit by US President George Bush next week. A local hunter is trying to shoot the perfect wild boar for the event and 12,000 police and a jet full of Secret Service agents have descended on the area. Most residents, however, are worried about the €12-million security costs.


The above is from an article entitled, "A Wild Boar for the President".
