• this really happened.

  

  here’s how it went down:

  the pope was giving a speech outside the white house.

  he finishes.

  president bush stands up, comes over, shakes his hand and says:

  “thanks your holiness. awesome speech.”

  seriously?! you say AWESOME SPEECH to the pope?

  he totally should have thrown in a fo’ shizzle or something.

  get down with your bad self, bushie.

  (lol, i don’t know why i expected anything else from him …)
  
  btw, here are a few other bush blunders, courtesy of the australian news:

  — president bush’s “awesome” remark to Pope Benedict was the latest indiscretion to be overheard worldwide.

  —
  at a summit in st petersburg in 2006, the microphones picked up bush
  addressing tony blair with: “yo, blair. how’re you doin’?”

  —
  in the same exchange, bush gave this assessment of the middle east
  peace process: “the thing is that what they need to do is get syria to
  get hezbollah to stop doing this shit and it’s over.”

  — meeting the Queen on the white house lawn in may 2007, he momentarily
  added hundreds of years to her age: “the American people are proud to
  welcome Your Majesty back to the United States, a nation you’ve come to
  know very well … you helped our nation celebrate its bicentennial in
  17 — in 1976.”
