Newsflash--Bush says a cuss word

In the midst of tremendous problems around the world, Bush's casual use of the "S" word in conversation with Tony Blair in what should have been a private moment (at least we think) was headline news to CNN this morning.

Several comments. First, just because someone uses a cuss word doesn't mean they are a false Christian. Surely that accusation will come. Second, why wasn't the jist of the conversation the headline? It was pretty sensational.

The headline could have touched on the apparent feeling between Blair and Bush that Kofi Annan wants to make sure he receives maximum credit in case anything gets solved, but apparently that was just too long.
