Y’all see that Bush was caught using the S-word today? (I’m using y’all since I know mental_floss started in Bama).
My personal favorite cussing by a public figure is Gen. Patton’s obscenity-laced speech. It’s crazy. The movie with George C Scott cleaned it up beyond recognition.
Mo Rocca has the most intelligent take on this I’ve seen so far:
1. He notes that, like Alanis Morrissette, Bush clearly doesn’t know what “ironic” means.
2. He argues that Bush almost certainly knew the mike was on.

You cite the PuffHo to make an argument on a website about facts? Isn’t that like washing your dishes in the toilet?
