Yeah, the President uttered a curse word while speaking to Tony Blair at the G-8 Summit, unaware an open mike was recording their conversation. Hey, who doesn’t want to curse when discussing the Middle East? I was more disheartened by his lack of engagement about the whole process. I think peace is going to take something more involved than “Hey, would ya keep that racket down?!”
Unfortunately, this is about the only example of hands-on diplomacy from Dubya. Now this is what the press would focus on if Clinton were still president.
