Warren and Bush: Diminishing each other

Our gang

Aren’t they cute, President Bush and celebrity preacher Rick Warren? They even add vowels to each others’ names. At Monday’s Saddleback Civil Forum on Global Health at the Newseum, Warren began his remarks by saying, “Well, Mr. President, I want to start by admitting to the audience that you always call me ‘Ricky.’ … There are only three people in my life who call me ‘Ricky’ — my mother, my grandmother and the President.”

Not to be outdone, the president replied to Warren, “You always call me ‘Georgie.'”
