I hear you. I'm waiting with more than a little anticipation to see this new administration and, hopefully, conservative offensive.
By the way, if this is how a "born again Christian" defends himself as a president, I don't want one (of this type) again.
I keep hoping that this little story applies.

One final note on George W. Bush’s management style and his Harvard Business School background does not derive from the classroom, per se. One feature of life there is that a subculture of poker players exists. Poker is a natural fit with the inclinations, talents, and skills of many future entrepreneurs. A close reading of the odds, combined with the ability to out-psych the opposition, leads to capital accumulation in many fields, aside from the poker table.
By reputation, the President was a very avid and skillful poker player when he was an MBA student. One of the secrets of a successful poker player is to encourage your opponent to bet a lot of chips on a losing hand. This is a pattern of behavior one sees repeatedly in George W. Bush’s political career. He is not one to loudly proclaim his strengths at the beginning of a campaign. Instead, he bides his time, does not respond forcefully, at least at first, to critiques from his enemies, no matter how loud and annoying they get. If anything, this apparent passivity only goads them into making their case more emphatically.
Well said. The rats have jumped from one slimy dimwit reporter to another, in a desperate attempt to see if any of them can make any effort whatsoever to drive their point home.
Their house of cards is falling down, all of their reporters/journalists/tv talkshow hosts are failing miserably. The newspaper sales and radio/tv shows ratings are down. The American people won't stand for this continuing deceit.
I see all the rats as drowning, their implosion is nearly complete.

Please don't believe that. I know polls are rigged in many ways, but George Bush's #'s DO suck. The old media is doing it's thing well STILL. Do not fall into that complacent thought process that the old media is not relevant anymore. They are still doing extraordinary damage!

Since they have lost the last 3 elections with the same useless rhetoric..I prefer to think of us conservatives as the real winners here.
I think the msm is simply showing America how insane they are.
That's interesting. But I believe that they are showing SOME Americans how OBSESSED they are. Unfortunately, there still are too many people too ignorant to see them for what they are. THAT is the danger, and that operative danger still lives.
Yes, their propaganda machine is alive but it's only for the same old trolls who don't care to find any truths anyway. I have to believe that a majority (albeit slim margin) of voters are not paying attention to the msm drivel.
