Bush Unplugged - Album Coming Soon

From Crooks and Liars: Bush Unplugged at the G8 over Middle East Conflict
Mr Bush was caught saying that a key to defusing the Middle East crisis was for "Hizbollah to stop doing this s**t". "What they need to do is get Syria to get Hizbollah to stop doing this s**t, and it’s over," Bush told British Prime Minister Tony Blair at a leaders’ lunch at the Group of Eight industrial countries gathering here. The President was on camera but apparently unaware that his words were being captured by a microphone.
Okay, now that's pretty funny. I needed that.

Truth is, I'd alomst be more inclined to side with him if he were like this all the time. Not so much the "we gotta make sure all them bad folks is wiped out" part or the "Kofi Annan is a pansy-ass because he doesn't wanna blow shit up" part, but the "stop doing this shit" part. We need more of Dubya just talking straight. No mincing words, no diplomacy (like he even knows what that word means), just him telling folks to cut the shit out. Either he'd get run out of Washington on a rail, or he'd actually get something worthwhile done. Either way, we all win, y'know?
