    Transcript: Bush and Blair's unguarded chat

    George W Bush and Tony Blair

    The conversation
    A transcript of the off-the-cuff conversation between US President George W Bush and UK Prime Minister Tony Blair during a break at the G8 conference in Russia.

    The president was caught on tape using an expletive as he described the actions of Hezbollah in attacking Israel.

    They also discussed the exchange of gifts.

    Bush: Yo, Blair. How are you doing?

    Blair: I'm just...

    Bush: You're leaving?

    Blair: No, no, no not yet. On this trade thingy...[indistinct]

    Bush: Yeah, I told that to the man.

    Blair: Are you planning to say that here or not?

    Bush: If you want me to.

    Blair: Well, it's just that if the discussion arises...

    Bush: I just want some movement.

    Blair: Yeah.

    Bush: Yesterday we didn't see much movement..

    Blair: No, no, it may be that it's not, it may be that it's impossible.

    Bush: I am prepared to say it.

    Blair: But it's just I think that we need to be an opposition...

    Bush: Who is introducing the trade?

    Blair: Angela [Merkel, the German Chancellor]

    Bush: Tell her to call 'em.

    Blair: Yes

    Bush: Tell her to put him on, them on the spot. Thanks for the sweater - it's awfully thoughtful of you.

    Blair: It's a pleasure.

    Bush: I know you picked it out yourself.

    Blair: Oh absolutely - in fact I knitted it!!!

    (laughter)

    Bush: What about Kofi? [Annan] - he seems all right. I don't like his ceasefire plan. His attitude is basically ceasefire and everything sorts out.... But I think...

    Blair: Yeah, no I think the [indistinct] is really difficult. We can't stop this unless you get this international business agreed.

    Bush: Yeah.

    Blair: I don't know what you guys have talked about, but as I say I am perfectly happy to try and see what the lie of the land is, but you need that done quickly because otherwise it will spiral.

    Bush: I think Condi [US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice] is going to go pretty soon.

    Blair: But that's, that's, that's all that matters. But if you... you see it will take some time to get that together.

    Bush: Yeah, yeah.

    Blair: But at least it gives people...

    Bush: It's a process, I agree. I told her your offer to...

    Blair: Well... it's only if I mean... you know. If she's got a..., or if she needs the ground prepared as it were... Because obviously if she goes out she's got to succeed, if it were, whereas I can go out and just talk.

    Bush: You see the irony is what they need to do is get Syria, to get Hezbollah to stop doing this shit and it's all over...

    Blair: [indistinct]

    Bush: [indistinct]

    Blair: Dunno... Syria....

    Bush: Why?

    Blair: Because I think this is all part of the same thing...

    Bush: (with mouth full of bread) Yeah

    Blair: Look - what does he think? He thinks if Lebanon turns out fine. If you get a solution in Israel and Palestine, Iraq goes in the right way

    Bush: Yeah, yeah, he is struggling.

    Blair: He's had it. And that's what the whole thing is about. It's the same with Iraq.

    Bush: I felt like telling Kofi to call, to get on the phone to Assad and make something happen.

    Blair: Yeah

    Bush: [indistinct]

    Blair: [indistinct]

    Bush: We are not blaming the Lebanese government.

    Blair: Is this...? [Blair taps the microphone in front of him and the sound is cut.]

    What a fuckwit

    It was a personal conversation between the two, and not official statements.

    I wish he would publicly speak like that, he'd have a 90% approval rating and the drive by news would be having strokes.

    so basically they're a bunch of reporters who latch onto a story and cause as much hysteria, etc as possible, ignoring things like truthful facts, people's lives/careers, etc, just to make themselves seem important/useful?

    After reading the entire transcript, I can't find a single objectionable item in it.

    What's all the hullabaloo about?

    Your so right on all levels of this. Why is it America is still being de-balled and feminized because we don't want to hurt the feelings of others. Screw all that crap.

    yeah, it's called bleeding-heart liberals :p Look at what happened to England... they're a nanny state now and so uber-PC that none of them have any balls left at all, and the Nannies that run the place live in such a deluded world filled with such bizarre hallucinations I'm scared to see what happens if any of them try LSD.
