Putin:"My mommy said that if you wiggle your nose, everything will be fine!"

Bush:"So when can we get out of these PJs into REAL clothes?"

"I told my friend Vladmir - I call him Vladmir - that if you wear a darker colored shirt, it won't be so trans-par-ent, and it'll be a little harder for folks to tell that you're wearing a bulletproof vest underneath."

or perhaps better yet

"sir, we need you to help us move this money out of the country. we just need a bank account number, so we can route it to you, and then when we know the coast is clear, we're just going to route it back out, just our share. your share will be twenty percent! do you know how much twenty percent of seven trillion dollars is? this is a great opportunity sir, and my friend and I really need your help."

Then as later, Bush would attribute Putin's demands or paranoia to those around him, essentially exonerating the Russian president himself. During a trade dispute when Russia cut off imports of American chicken drumsticks (known colloquially within Russia as "Bush legs"), Putin in a private conversation with Bush asserted that Americans deliberately sent bad poultry to Russia.

"I know you have separate plants for chickens for America and chickens for Russia," Putin told Bush.

Bush was astonished. "Vladimir, you're wrong."

"My people have told me this is true," Putin insisted.
