That's Our Bush

I hate poor peopleI assume that everyone has seen this...it just makes me want to sing Lee Greenwood! Bush, unaware that he was being recorded, while talking to other world leaders at the G8 conference:
"See the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this s--- and it's over," Bush told [Tony] Blair as he chewed on a buttered roll.

[Discussing flying time home ...] "You eight hours? Me, too. Russia's a big country and you're a big country," Bush said, at one point telling a waiter he wanted Diet Coke. "Takes him eight hours to fly home. Russia's big and so is China. Yeah Blair, what're you doing? Are you leaving."

Bush also remarked that some speakers at the meeting talk too long.

..."Now watch this drive."

Update: ThinkProgress.org weighs in including a link to the full transcript.
