Dreads?
Slip-up reveals Bush and Blair's gossip secrets (Alec Russell, Telegraph)
It is the moment every politician dreads: the private conversation caught by the open microphone.
A chat between George W Bush and Tony Blair was recorded at yesterday's closing lunch at the G8 summit. As he munches on a bread roll Mr Bush confides:
"What they need to do is get Syria to get Hizbollah to stop doing this shit, and it's over." It is unclear who "they" are.
Dreads?
Some of us can't help but wonder if Karl Rove flipped the switch on!
That said, I don't especially like hearing profanities from my President, Republican or Democrat.

When the Nixon tape transcripts started appearing in the Daily Telegraph I remember feeling absolutely horrified that an American president would even KNOW any swear words.
This time I wasn't shocked, but it did upset me to see Our President eating with his mouth open :(

Or did I mean "talking with his mouth full"?
