Apparently the President is so desperate for friends, all you have to do is send him a fax and he'll show up a few weeks later. Of course, it is in Ohio:
Businessman's Invitation Prompts Presidential Visit
TIPP CITY, Ohio (AP) -- A contractor in Tipp City, Ohio, faxed the White House a couple of weeks ago to invite President Bush to come speak, and was flabbergasted when the White House faxed back, accepting.
Bush plans to speak there tomorrow.
Steve Bruns is former head of the Tipp City Area Chamber of Commerce and is a Bush backer. He says he wanted the president to explain why the "fight against the terrorists and victory in Iraq are so important."
White House spokesman Alex Conant says it's a "good opportunity to visit Ohio and talk about the war."
Bruns says when he looked at the fax accepting his invitation, he thought, "You've got to be kidding me."
The president is to speak at Tippecanoe High School to local businessmen and students who take an advanced government class.
A fax?
