Presidential candor
By now you know MSM is atwitter over President Bush's frustrated cussin' at the G-8 Summit in Russia. On a day that brought with it a deluge of significant and news developments from around the globe, W's comments somehow found themselves in the spotlight: "See the irony is that what they [the United Nations] need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this s[hit] and it's over," he told Tony Blair.
And that's it. That's the story - the President said "shit." Which got me thinking about Bill Clinton's somewhat famous, and also very revealing moment: shedding some ridiculous crocodile tears while leaving Ron Brown's funeral in April 1996, just after yucking it up with an aide.
I'll take W and his "cowboy diplomacy" any day.
