How are the media whores going to spin this one?
There's no way to make this look good. But I suspect they're going to try.

1. Why bother? It's much easier to make it look bad...
With the exception of FAUX, the media are not always right wing whores.

7. On ABC, nobody's willing to say Emperor's got no clothes.
They're treating that thing like it was a competent display of the skills Americans expect of their president.

I just have to say, that THING they just showed was stunning, even by the incredibly low standards Bush has set over the last four years.

I really can't believe that's passable behaviour by the POTUSofA.

And NOBODY on ABC is willing to call it what it was.

Terry Moran just called what Bush did "stagecraft."

He should be using words like "embarrassing" and "inarticulate" and "confusing" and "inspiring little confidence" and that's just if he wants to be honest. If they want to spin it they should be saying, "we need to call early elections, 'cause this guy clearly isn't up to the job."u

9. sh is THE REASON those Iraqis are afraid of American Systems
Political systems that is. They see the flaws, that it clearly was comped and resulted in a nutcase select6ed for the top job when clearly not qualied not fitting.

Every thinking human on this Planet is shaking their heads in bewilderment that Bush is still in office. Dufus One.

11. "Needed to look confident for the 'merkun people. Did that"
so what if it was evasive, utterly devoid of substance, and incoherent.
