That would have been Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. I don’t know that he told her to leave the room, but he did confess as to being unable to conduct negotiations in ‘their’ (her gams) presence. ---

I thought maybe this might have been a chat-up-line gone horribly wrong. You know the sort of thing; bring the bus to a screeching halt, tell the young lady that you can’t peel your eyes off her distracting cleavage, she swoons into your manly arms, several minutes of passionate snogging ensue, then you abandon the bus, carrying her away into the sunset as the stranded passengers cheer and punch the air, celebrating the spontaneity of life, despite being stuck on a bus, unable to get home… then the credits roll up… ---

Sharon actually said he was distracted because “she has four legs”, but it was mistranslated as “she has _very nice_ legs”. That Condoleezza Rice is a hexapod is one of the less-well-known bits of American political trivia. ---

[QUOTE=Jayn\_Newell] Backwards, so it can be read easily when the driver looks in the mirror and he doesn’t get distracted trying to figure out what it says 😉 [/QUOTE] Something like [this](http://rockip.com/WatchTheRoad.jpg)? 😛 Quick & dirty photoshop of the first in a long line of SDMB brand clothing prototypes for the busty German woman. Hoping that “Achtung! Die Straße betrachten!” is a close enough approximation of what we’re trying to say! ---
