The Bush-Blair chit-chat

I'm trying not to make too much of yesterday's brief chat between Bush and Blair in front of an open mic at the G8 summit in St. Petersburg. It is what it is, sweaters and all. For your amusement, here's the full transcript.

My view? Who cares if Bush said "shit"? More seriously, isn't he right that Syria is behind Hezbollah? Isn't he right that Kofi Annan's "ceasefire plan" is largely toothless? Isn't Blair right that an "international presence" may be needed?

Anyway, that's about it. See Joe Gandelman at The Moderate Voice for much more.
