Democrats often remained seated - and some even hooted when the president pushed tax cuts.

They should have been escorted out.

"As he spoke, Sen. Edward Kennedy, a Massachusetts Democrat, could be seen shaking his head in disagreement."

I thought that was a sign of Parkinson's Disease, or maybe another nervous disorder. Like where is my Chivas Regal fix?

"Had we failed to act, the dictator's weapons of mass destruction programs would continue to this day," Bush said. As he spoke, Sen. Edward Kennedy, a Massachusetts Democrat, could be seen shaking his head in disagreement.

This is the so-called "journalistic" mission -- to provide 'balanced' news.

Reject journalism and return to reporting.

Write on report about Bush's speech with the details.

If Kennedy has a contrary view, then write another report about that with all the details.

I'm perfectly capable of balancing those views (and others) all my myself.

Morning, xzins. Great headline to bump up to compete with mainstream headlines...with help from the crew.

Once more from the NY Post, the Ernie Pyles of headline writing for America during wartime.
