What's the evidence that The WH is even considering such a visit. A DRUDGE-a-Gram? Its Matt's weekly hype for his Sunday show.
If I want to hear a couple of gasbags spew political bilge, I'll watch Meet The Press.
Bush should go visit the troops in Iraq and talk with them. I know they can use the support right now after listening to Michael Moore, John Fonda Kerry, and CNN.
Saw it.
And the ONLY reason they gave Drudge (who they hate) any mention was the opportunity to slam President Bush.
Here's the e-mail I sent to the NBC Olympic feedback:
Anti-Bush comments
The derogatory, biased comments made by Jim Lampley (?) regarding the rumor of President Bush visiting the Olympics should be designated onscreen as what they are - an editorial, not fact. NBC's continuing and painfully obvious left-wing bias is probably one reason I am not watching much of the Olympics this year, combined with the fact that airing tape-delayed prime time events in a world where information is instantly available online is archaic, at best. Perhaps you are trying to make sure your coverage is as archaic as Athens itself - congrats in succeeding with that.
Have you by any chance in your infinite wisdom done a story about how the Iraqi soccer team physically GOT to Athens? I understand they were airlifted out of Iraq by coalition forces. Must be nice to get such good care, as opposed to being airlifted via thumb screws in the old days. But none of this, of course, will ever be emphasized by liberal media whores like you.
Let me see here. The US is providing a massive amount of the security in both forces and money, so who is the strain on? These bozos are so biased that they use ANY opportunity to stab Bush. Am also willing to bet that these select two players were not on the last olympic soccer team(managed by Uday). Perhaps Lampley could have done one better by interviewing these two players. This made me sick too. When Kerry "self destructs" let's see what these liberal weenies have to say.
NBC= No Bush Campaign
So far my TV's been on for exactly 0.0 seconds of Olympic Coverage. It's not the politics, it's the mind-numbingly boooo-oring sports and estrogen soaked "human interest" stuff. Now they wanna go Boston Globe on me as well?
I'll bet Lampley gets a big NBC raise for thinking of a way to bash Bush during the Olympics. If only there were a team from Vietnam so that they could say something like "Vietnam hasn't seen athletes like this since John Kerry left." Bob Costas certainly has no class. He even used his little sports show to slam Reagan on the week of his funeral. I used to think CBS was the worst, but NBC has surpassed them!

Yea, what is with these network commentators interjecting politics anyway? I have been hearing alot about broadsided America bashing going on there. The Olympics is a time to be proud of the efforts made by the USA teams. Wait.. aren't these the same networks that have been demoralizing our troops with the constant media blitz about Bush lies? On second thought I am not surprised.
AP Breaking News reports

LOWLIGHT: NBC dropped the ball by failing, during a four-hour prime-time telecast Saturday, to report on the controversy surrounding judging in the gymnastics all-around competition won by American Paul Hamm. NBC argues that the issue was covered at least five times earlier in the day Saturday, and there wasn't more to be said. But Hamm is a prime-time player whose inspirational victory dominated Wednesday night's telecast. Viewers of NBC's prime-time on Saturday -- its showcase broadcast of a long day -- deserved a complete report.
