McClellan Says Bush's Spanish Not Good


WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush likes to drop a few words of Spanish in his speeches and act like he's proficient in the language. But he's really not that good, his spokesman said Thursday.

``The president can speak Spanish but not that well,'' White House press secretary Scott McClellan said. ``He's not that good with his Spanish.''

McClellan's comment was noticeable because presidential press secretaries usually boast about a president's ability rather than talk about any shortcomings. McClellan is in the last days of his job, leaving the White House next week.

McClellan made his remark in response to a report that Bush had sung the Star-Spangled Banner in Spanish during the 2000 campaign. Just last week Bush said the national anthem should be sung in English, not Spanish.

``It's absurd,'' McClellan said of the report, suggesting that Bush couldn't have sung it in Spanish even if he had wanted to.
