they are back to "Have you made any mistakes?" story line, to try and push "incompetence" angle.

Yep! At the exact same time the kooks are voting on impeachment hearings. Everyone in the administration should simply say; If you cannot ask better question than "Have you made any mistakes?" then this interview is over. Have a nice day.

JMHO of course.

Yeah, I thought instead of answering a stupid question, a counter could be something like "Have you ever done a perfect interview, and how long did it last?" and "Could not you conduct the interview better than you are doing right now?"

Would love to see the expression on interviewer's face, because that would take him / her completely off the game plan. But of course, the real purpose is to ask questions that no one can really answer "No", so then one can print the "admission" and "incompetence" and "redemption" story... Sadly, that's what "Journalism 101" is now.

I guess, Condi could really complain about the "gotcha" questions, but she has too much class for that, and she handled this pretty well, by hinting to some actual problems (Bremer's command of CPA) that happened in Iraq, though she had nothing to do with them.
