Today in Ulaan Baatar, capital of the Mongolian Empire, President Bush
\n was finally able to claim success on his much-maligned

"Emperor Khan
\n is a steadfast ally of the United States and has been instrumental in
\n the united front against terrorism.  In addition, we are heartened

\n of Mongols in the United States, he playfully put his arm around Emperor
\n Khan and joked, “Some of my best friends are Mongoloids!”<\/font><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
