"Some people in Muslim cultures identify democracy with the worst of Western popular culture and want no part of it. And I assure them, when I speak about the blessings of liberty, coarse videos and crass commercialism are not what I have in mind," Bush said.

June 28 - A man caught playing an adult film in his car will have to serve jail time.

Thirty-five-year-old Andre Gainey of Clifton Park has pleaded guilty to public display of sexual material and two other misdemeanors.

He's expected to get a 30-day jail term when he's sentenced next month.

Gainey's lawyer says his client didn't know he was breaking the law when he played the X-rated DVD on three screens visible from the outside of his Mercedes-Benz earlier this year.

Schenectady police officers noticed the movie as Gainey drove near the police station.

Meeting with local Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders, he also described Turkey as a country that has fostered tolerance between its Islamic majority and its minority religious groups.

"They represent the very best of Turkey, which is a country that is secular in politics and strong in its faith," he said. He ended his remarks by thanking the assembled Turkish religious figures "for being so faithful to the Almighty God."
