Monday, September 26 Rep. Peter King to MSNBC's Chris Matthews: Just because the president doesn't watch you on television, it doesn't mean he's not doing his job.

PK: Let me tell you, Chris. Mike Chertoff is with the president every step of the way. I met with Secretary Chertoff. Mike Chertoff has been with the president each stage over the last several days. He was there in the planning. I was with him last week when he was involved with the planning. He's been with President Bush at every stage. And Chris, there's sort of a frenzy here by the media. Let's not forget the incompetence of the mayor of New Orleans. the Governor in New Orleans. They were the ones in the first instance you were required to do the job, and they didn't. As far as President Bush, it's wrong for you to say he wasn't caring. He certainly was caring. But what he was not equipped for was to explain for the incompetency of local officials, or to explain the hysteria, or anticipate the hysteria created by you in the media, who go off the deep end. Let's treat this with a little rationality, and a little bit of decency.

Chrissy and his MSM ilk are getting taken to the cleaners -- especially since the time Chrissy had Michelle Malkin on his show and gave her the meat cleaver treatment...he paid for that BIG.

Now he gets it on the chin -- nicely!!! :-)

King does a better job of defending the president on this matter than anyone I've heard to date.

PK: Chris, you won't give me a chance to answer the questions. Just because the president doesn't watch you on television, it doesn't mean he's not doing his job. You know, Franklin Roosevelt wasn't hired to listen to radio accounts of D-Day. You're hired to do the job, and the president can do his job without having to listen to Chris Matthews or Andrea Mitchell or Tim Russert, or any of the others. He is doing his job. Now I agree the military should have been brought in sooner, but that was primarily the fault of the local government not being more responsive, and then the president did the best he could. Could he have been there a few hours earlier? Perhaps. But nowhere near the criticism he's getting from you people.

What's really scary is the way these a-wipes think they are the center of everything and act truly astonished that the President isn't watching their t.v. program. They must think they are important or something. Absolutely-freakin-astonishing arrogance. Crissy has some issues. I mean what a big fat baby

Now, finally, the media is beginning to correct all the lies and rumors they spread about rapes and murders, admitting that they exaggerated the events or simply printed unfounded speculation and rumor.

I wonder if they will start to correct themselves about the federal government's (adequate) response to Hurricane Katrina.

Probably not.

Secret Service: "Mr. President, Hardball is on in 2 minutes!"

Bush: "Thanks, sorry General, the war update will have to wait. I need to watch Chris to see what's really going on in the world."

ROTFPIMP!FUNNY...Chrissy done for.

...reminds me of a thread about Timmie (potatoe head :) Rusert: "GET INSIDE HIS HEAD AND SHAKE VERY HARD"..it really messes with *their* line of questioning...

They don't pay any attention to the answers given...THEY ATTACK.. ATTACK..ATTACK..facts don't matter, only LMSMedia perception.

Congressman King's defense of the president is the best, most lucid and eloquent I've heard from any of the GOP. Slamming Chrissy with the charge that the media went off the deep and and created all the hysteria was PRICELESS!
