WASHINGTON, DCLiberian interim government chairman Gyude Bryant is strongly considering extending his first diplomatic visit to the U.S., the West African leader announced Monday. 'It feels like I just got here,' said Bryant, whose nation has just begun the work of rebuilding its infrastructure after 14 years of civil war. 'Why rush back to Liberia? I'm barely settled into my hotel suite. I haven't even used the whirlpool.' Bryant, head of the Liberian government since former president Charles Taylor was forced into exile, said he may as well stay at least until the violence in the city of Buchanan dies down, which would allow him to check out the Smithsonian.
