MESEBERG, Germany - The first President Bush, famously, didn't like broccoli. Apparently his son feels differently about asparagus. And he wants the people of Germany to know it.
In a news conference Wednesday with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, President Bush thanked his host for a most gracious dinner the night before. He and first lady Laura Bush had been treated to schnitzel, asparagus and a bowl of fresh strawberries.
"Laura and I loved our dinner last night," Bush said. "For those in the German press who thought I didn't like asparagus, you're wrong. The German asparagus are fabulous."
