must read about *'s pathetic day Thursday in NY

Dan Froomkin in The Washington Post puts out the BEST daily page detailing coverage of Bush and what's swirling about the White House. You should read it EVERY day. Today's page includes a lot of info about what Bush did at the memorial ceremony yesterday.:

Newsday columnist Lawrence C. Levy describes this scene at yesterday's groundbreaking for a Long Island memorial to the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks:

"After turning over the first shovel of dirt, Bush walked toward the families at the ceremony. Perhaps drawn to the large portrait of a young firefighter that she carried, Bush first sought out Pat Kiefer, whose son Michael perished at the World Trade Center.

"Bush didn't know that Mrs. Kiefer held him responsible for her son's death. 'I don't have any problems with the ads,' she later told me, referring to footage of Ground Zero in Bush's commercial. 'He's trying to show he was there after the attack, and he was, but I'll never forgive him for not doing something before it happened.'

"But as the police bagpipers played Amazing Grace, she recounted that the most powerful man in the world put his arm around her shoulder and looked into her eyes as they talked about her son's love of firefighting. 'He's a handsome boy,' Bush said before moving on to the next survivor. 'It's obvious where he got his looks.'

"Bush, she said, made her giggle and blush. She never told him what was on her mind."

The woman later told a reporter that she would never vote again.

She could have fired the "thought heard round the world" if she just told him what she was thinking in that setting with that coverage. And the rw-ers would have no way to jump on her without taking themselves out too!

jeezus christ what a missed opportunity. I wish I had that little bastards ear for one second...he would never forget it!

why does he always mention how attractive men are?

our first Gay president...

:shrug:

What is this, jr. high?

Was he hitting on her???

'It's obvious where he got his looks.'

it is a fear that is justified by how the administration deals with those that say anything against it.

While I am not afraid of them, many people are, I would have told him to kiss off and get out of OUR WH!

O8)

She should have spoken up for her son.. Maybe she shouldn't be voting, if she feels that way and misses an opportunity to say what's on her mind..

What we all wouldn't pay to have * in front of us..and get to tell him something :grr:


sorry for her loss, but if the person I held responsible for MY kid's death was right there in front of me, I would NOT giggle..:grr:

And what about the father who pinned his dead son's wings on *? The poor man. So deluded.
