"Bush's Farcical Press Conference" - OUCH!!

EDIT

"The presidential performance again confirmed why no presidential aide would even think of putting the bossman in front of television cameras at any actually watched time of day. W.'s open-air ramblings were an embarrassment of simplistic repetition and all-too obvious mental straining, not to mention an unsightly temper, transparent deception, laughable contradictions, tawdry blame laying and frequent unintelligibility. He made one long for the flashy showmanship of Calvin Coolidge, the easy eloquence of Dwight D. Eisenhower, the simple honesty of Richard Nixon.

What's more, the president's wretched little show unfurled even under the best of sheltered circumstances; which is to say, the White House frowns on follow-up questions. That sort of thing simply isn't done in the Boy King's presence. So a compliant, obsequious press lobs soft balls his direction and W. lobs them back with an unaccountability that would curl the British hair of loyal oppositionists during Question Time.

Will the president cooperate with the independent commission investigating the administration's pre-9/11 screwups? Sure he will. Said W., "I want to be helpful" - a contention thrown a bit into question by his steadfast intransigence on the matter. It is, he continued, just that the requested documents (one of which reportedly warned of al Qaeda's plans to hijack airliners a full month before 9/11) would get "politicized."

Any reporter worth minimum wage would leap to point out to the president that, however inadvertently, he just confirmed the existence of damning evidence since, by his own admission, it is indeed "politicize-able." The reporter might also point out that in a free and open society these things do indeed get politicized. But sorry, next question. We must move along."

Brilliant!

In a sense, the article tells this basic truth that forever eludes the masses: 'The Emperor is buck-ass naked, stupid and dangerously incompetent'. Figures it wasn't in the mainstream press. :(

... it's 'the President thinks' ... 'the President believes' ... 'the President said' ... and, it all sounds precise, coherent, thorough, complex and educated ...

where in the hell is the shree lanky place?

You are placing to much focus on the marionette.

Focus on the people who thought they could mold him sufficiently to get through this and get the support of other back slappers, gun lovers, abortion haters, and those poor innocent 'old die-hard republicans, plus those who were hate liberals as much as furriners.

Focus on the people who are really calling the shots. They must no longer care that the person sitting there is a joke, but they keep him doing his job while they push their agendas.

You are being deflected.

I totally agree........it's the people pulling the strings we need to concentrate on. Bush is just the messenger and a poor one at that.

You know the old saying about if you don't like the message?

Loved it.
