Agence France Presse reports that Bush read French existential writer Albert Camus's "The Stranger."

"White House spokesman Tony Snow said Friday that Bush, here on his Texas ranch enjoying a 10-day vacation from Washington, had made quick work of the Algerian-born writer's 1946 novel -- in English."

Hands up if anyone believes that Bush has read this. What a load of utter crap. A reporter should ask Bush a question about it at his next press conference.
