Heh heh. David Gregory called the Bush-to-Iraq visit a

"Confidence Game". At least, I think they were still talking about Bush going to Iraq.

A "Con Game". Man, if only the media had used that kind of terminology back in 2000.

1. You go, David. Any MSM reporter who even remotely calls

this shit what it is gets a teeny tiny gold star. It will take 60 trillion gold stars to begin to redeem yourself for what the media has contributed to the downfall of the republic.

3. I think it was on purpose. I think he wanted to make it sound like

a con game, but didn't want to be accused of being hard on Bunnypants. So his excuse for the phrase will be that Bush is trying to inspire confidence in the people in the US. But I think he used "confidence game" intentionally.

Laughter erupted here as well.
