Presidential Dialects

Well, So here I am again, reading MSNBC at work today, and I'm checking out a story on Bush and Merkel's response to the current shellings and attacks between Israel and Lebanon. at the end of the first of two pages there is a quote by Bush regarding a slight that Putin had made against the Vice President, and in this response, bush says: "It was quite humorous, not to diss my friend the Vice President." "Dis", yes it is in Websters Dictionary defined as:
v : treat, mention, or speak to rudely; "He insulted her with his rude remarks"; "the student who had betrayed his classmate was dissed by everyone" [syn: insult, affront](

But how Stately is it of a President to use such a term when regarding a verbal assult from our Former Cold War enemy?

I don't know, I know I shouldn't expect much from the guy, but dangit, he is th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!!!!!!!

(So was Bush the Child we Left Behind?)
