July 18, 2006 -- WASHINGTON - President Bush yesterday vented his frustration with the surging violence in the Mideast during a private chat with British Prime Minister Tony Blair that was picked up by an open microphone - insisting Syria should get Hezbollah to "stop doing this shit."
It hit the fan during a luncheon photo op at the Group of 8 diplomatic summit in Russia as Bush and Blair candidly plotted strategy to halt the attacks.
"I think Condi [Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice] is going to go [to the war zone] pretty soon," Bush said.
"It will take some time to get that together," Blair said. "Obviously, if she goes out, she's got to succeed as it were, whereas I can just go out and talk."
Bush replied, "See, the irony is what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this shit and it's over."
The president was adamant in placing the blame for the violence exclusively on Hezbollah.

I just wish Pres Bush would have called the Presidents of Iran, Syria and North Korea a goup of crazy clymers ... and joked that the bonmbing would start in 5 minutes.
Ahhh, those were the days...
... and never a word about clinton leaving his presidue on a Jewish intern
Rush said he knew he was miked. I love this Cowboy Prez.
"...knew he was miked..."
I immediately recalled the open-mike comment made by the President to Dick Cheney about some columnist.
It served him well then and it will serve him now. It will not matter what people think of him in political terms; he strikes a chord with the average Joe when he distills foreign policy to understandable terms.
Finally, a thread that can reaaly use that slogan!
mideast version "Oy Vey, not this sheisse again!"
These comments by Bush should increase his popularity by at least 5 percentage points. It portrays him as a no-nonsense leader.
"If Mr. Bush walked on water and fed a stadium of people with two fish the media and libs would still excoriate him. "
If President Bush walked on water the NY Times headline would read:
"President Bush Can't Swim"
And .. I caught a glimpse of O'Reilly saying that it was an "embarrassment".
Huh?? So now .. the TRUTH has become an embarrassment ..??
I'm glad the President said it .. it needed to be said!
And .. how many times did Bill Clinton say "F__K you" (along with Hillary), and the media just ignored it.
This was nothing more than another DRIVE-BY media attempt to make a scandal out of NOTHING!
Well, could have been worse or maybe even funnier if he had said those "GD MFs.....need to stop this Sheeet."
Listen, for the umteenth time. They are not "towelheads". What they wear on their head are not towels at all, rather small, folded sheets.
Thus, if feel the need to refer to these people by this adornment it is appropriate to refer to them as, "little sheet heads".
Thank you.
Sigh..yes..the President said the s word..makes me long for the clinton years..imagine if the mic were on for him.."Shazam..Tony..did you see the rack on that babe in the front row??? I wonder if she speaks english..ha ha ha..doesn't matter..I could tell her that I have studied a broad before..yuck yuck"...
the same media/tv networks that fight to get the foul laguage, sex and nudity into prime time TV is offended by a bad word, now that is funny
I used to work for a Quaker that could turn the air blue when his farm equipment was giving him trouble.
Once when Granpa was coming home from the market with his cart and mule he gave the preacher a ride.
Hours later, when he got home, Junior asked what took so long.
Grandpa said, "Hell, with the preacher in the cart I couldn't cuss at the mule".
Will need to give directions to find this.....go here :
Now in the list under breaking news click on the video icon to the left of the line that says:
The cussing, spitting, open-mouth chewing Bush
Someone needs to capture that before they pull it.
Bush ready for first presidential speech to NAACP Hope this works,...I haven't actually viewed since I don't have Windows Media Player on this machine....
forget about the word shit - I thought it was very uncool to be talking with food in your piehole
