Is it too late to switch things up in Crawford, maybe book a double wedding there next month?

In a moment of heads-of-state jocularity last week, President Bush reportedly told Bulgarian Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev that he'd make a great son-in-law. This, anyway, according to one of Bulgaria's largest newspapers, 24 Chasa, which did not cite its sources, but honestly it sounds too weird for anyone to make up. Still, the report kind of chafed the White House, which said it was "ridiculous" for the paper to imply that POTUS was trying to matchmake.

"The president certainly is not spending his time at NATO finding a match for either of his daughters," said spokeswoman Sally McDonough. Glad to hear it! 24 Chasa reported that the comment came during a break in the serious talk, while the two world leaders chatted about their exercise regimens.

Other reasons we don't think Bush was serious: Stanishev, 41, while single, has been living with journalist Elena Yoncheva for years. Also, he's a total socialist.
