Anyone else disturbed by the behavior of the press at the newsconference?
I have the RealVid playing right now; these "journalists" are cheering like boors at a football game. I realize that notions of journalistic integrity are foreign to the majority of those assigned to Iraq, but how about plain dignity?

3. I do. But not just for Saddam
But for all of the prase they heap on Bush.

They say as fact that this "securies" W's election. And how "please" Bush must be. They also question what Bush will do, as if he is the law Talking about when Saddam will face his "military tribunal". The presses behavor is most disgusting.

Its nothing more that giant staged mediea event.
