Bush Curses Hezbollah at G-8 Luncheon
AP via NewsMax ^ | July 17, 2006 | Carl Limbacher

Posted on 07/17/2006 5:22:07 AM PDT by Kaslin

It wasn't meant to be overheard. Private luncheon conversations among world leaders, picked up by a microphone, provided a rare window into both banter and substance - including President Bush cursing Hezbollah's attacks against Israel.

Bush expressed his frustration with the United Nations and his disgust with the militant Islamic group and its backers in Syria as he talked to British Prime Minister Tony Blair during the closing lunch at the Group of Eight summit.

"See the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this (expletive) and it's over," Bush told Blair as he chewed on a buttered roll.

You are correct. This was a vulgarity. A vulgarity is different than a curse. A vulgarity is not used in polite society, but these were politicians.

If Hillary or Bill did it, it would probably only be plastered all over the liberal news if the Clintonistas took a poll and determined that it would boost their approval rating.

Found it. Ephesians 4:2

29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

Now THAT would have been an inaccurate statement. The family members they are F*&%ing would not be their mothers.

Interesting... that's the same word I use when describing:

US Senate Immigration Bill
John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy (or any other Kennedy)
The education industry that's bankrupting America
Arlen Specter
John McCain - McCain Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Act
Trial lawyers
Ramsey Clark
Ross Perot - he who gave us the Clintons

You know, he may be on to something. Except, I almost always put the words "piece of" in front of it.

By their fruits you will know them - Bible. There is a heart problem. He can't be reading his Bible every day like he claims with a mouth like that......

This post is for tmp02s benefit: Were you born stupid or did you have to train for it? I have never seen any passage in the bible that forbids the use of the word Sh**. Please indicate it for me/us.

I wonder how many times Tony Blaire used the word "bloody." Why is this not reported?

Your said : "How about if he says "Holy $#!+"?"


Why are you crossing the word s--- out if it is not bad? Even society (which I DO NOT follow) would say that these words are not appropriate.

Which is more foolish, to think that, or to post that on FR? Normally, someone posting obvious flame-bait is considered a troll!

I don't like to see Christians curse. I believe it hurts the body. But I don't see an out and out prohibition against it and I think that there's a larger heart problem on the part of the judgers and nay sayers against fellow believers. I can read my Bible every day and still sin, I'm sorry to say. But it doesn't mean Jesus is not in my heart.

agreed. Do you think the Holy Spirit is telling you to say the words that you say. If profain, it is NOT from God. We want to be complete in Christ, not complete in the world. While we sin, we should be sinning less each day, not more. The Bible say that we are to speak "truth in love" not profain unto death.

Because FreeRepublic is polite society (or most of us anyway). A vulgarity is not used in polite society. There are rules about the appropriate use of language which you apparently don't get.

And what is corrupt about "shit"? It is a natural, human process that evolves out of eating.

Seems some are confusing victorian prudishness with biblical admonition. The bible tells us not to blaspheme, not to take God's name in vain, nowhere does it say that a human bodily function should not be said aloud.

Is this wrong???

Bush should curse Hezbollah. I bet FDR cursed Hitler and Tojo and there is NO difference between Islam and fascism.


AP is a left-wing propganda organ. Katie Couric must be their ghost writer.

I think the UNs inaction on so many world affairs would make Jesus curse like a sailor in frustration! LOL
