From Reuters
WASHINGTON —
President Bush welcomed America’s Nobel laureates to the White House Monday, including former President Jimmy Carter, who has criticized Bush’s foreign policy.
Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize last month for his “untiring effort” to resolve international conflicts and to advance democracy and human rights.
With Carter and five other 2002 Nobelists in the Oval Office, Bush quipped: “Of course, I welcome somebody who spent a lot of quality time here.”
