Tyson sends chicken to Russia

Then there was President Bush's first meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2001 in Slovenia, when they privately sparred over -- of all things -- U.S. chicken imports to Russia.

"You're only sending us chickens from the bad chicken plants," Putin railed at Bush, according to Bartlett. "And Americans are getting all the good chicken plants."

Bartlett noted that Putin repeatedly referred to "George" in the conversation. "And when he gets really kind of uppity he would always, like, would pointedly say, 'George,' " Bartlett said.

Bush was stunned by Putin's wrong information, according to Bartlett, who then showed his audience a pretty good impersonation of Bush.

"He's kind of like what the hell is he talking about?" recalled Bartlett. " 'Vladimir, if you want to come over to America, we can go to every chicken plant in America and eat as many chickens as you want! Let's go now!"
