International Incident: Bush Uses 'S' Word While Talking to Blair

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a much bigger problem than World War III. Much bigger than the Iranian nuclear crisis, the North Korean missile crisis, and far more important than Karl Rove's receding hairline. Bush said the 'S' word!!!!

All hell is going to break loose on this one. There are reports worldwide coming in of people stopping dead in their tracks. The Israelis and Hezbollah stopped firing at each other to turn on the news to watch the late breaking coverage of this tragic event.

One panicked man wearing a foil hat was quoted as saying "if that son-of-bitch said the 's' word, then they ought to impeach his ass".

Come on folks. I don't think this is a major deal. Especially when you look at the whole sentence:
"You see, the...thing is what they need to do is to get Syria, to get Hezbollah to stop doing this s*** and it's over."

If that's all a world leader says about this serious situation then I'm impressed with his verbal restraint. I've been using almost every word in the book watching the news networks.
