June 6, 2004President George W. Bush traveled to France to attend a ceremony commemorating the D-Day invasion and attempted to play down his dispute with President Jacques Chirac over the invasion of Iraq; Bush told French journalists that he was never angry with the French or with Chirac for his refusal to endorse the war, and he even invited Chirac to visit the ranch down in Crawford, Texas. "If he wants to come and see cows, he's welcome to come out here and see some cows," Bush said, apparently unaware that Chirac, a former agriculture minister, is a cattle expert.
