How did Susan Estrich ever get in the position of a TV commentator?? She's on Fox now, Al D'Amato is making mincemeat out of her.

Also, why were ABC and NBC trying so hard to get President Bush to apologize? They should apologize to us the viewers for all their stupid questions.

President Bush has NOTHING to apologize for!!

Was I imagining it, or right after the press conference ended, did I see Helen Thomas walk by the podium, wagging her head in disgust?

What's Bill Schneider saying?

He'll say his "Play of the Week" is Kerry's brilliant "Misery Index".

Don't give me that kerry fan crap.

I'm just saying, can Bush with this win over that critical 5% undecided. I'm not sure myself!

Count me in! [i.e., to press bashing party]

You're invited. Come one, come all to the D.C. Chapter's Sixth Annual Freep of the White House Correspondents Association (thread with preliminary announcement). Quoting from that:

Saturday, May 1, 4 p.m. to 8: 30 p.m. The D.C. Chapter's Sixth Annual Freep of the White House Correspondents Association Dinner. Location: Outside the Washington Hilton, Connecticut Avenue and T Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.

Our most fun protest every year. This is your chance to tell the mainstream media to their faces what you think about their biased reporting. You'll also be able to meet and thank those reporters who do their job like it should be done.

Overreliance on catch phrases, to me, means he doesn't have a cogent answer ready.

Today was ok. It could of and should of been a lot better.

And Ceci Connolly on fox said he should hold more press conferences to show what a strong leader he is and not phoney. They finally watched the same press conference we did!

It sometimes feels like we're living in a Commie country, where the media tells us THEIR view of what occurred, even if it's not reality...

O' Donnell on MSNBC- The President " stumbled " when he was asked about mistakes he made post 9/11 and didn't have an answer.

Interesting that NBC bugged out for a rerun, after 30 seconds from Russert.I think the media is licking their wounds.

Did you catch the answer W gave about why the FBI and CIA couldn't talk to each other? The law ... which means Congress. I smell a democRAT. Don't play poker with Bush.

I thought I'd fall off my chair - Ceci Connolly surprised me. I think President Bush may have finally gotten through to some of these partisans because he is a humble honest man.

Actually I don't. I get my news here and don't take time to watch the media make fools of themselves, and there-by our nation.

Good Grief CNN has Lee Hamilton on. Why can't these media hounds simply wait until their report is released before flooding the airwaves. Sickening!

Bob, there were two very interesting pieces of news this week about WMDs. 1) the Israeli C. of Staff Ya lon or something like that said he was sure we would find the WMDs, though in lesser amounts than we thought, in Iraq; and 2) the IRANIANS were saying tonight (courtesy of Fox/Brit Hume that we are using the Fallujah al-Sadr stuff to cover up the fact that we are sneaking WMDs "into" Iraq so we can "discover" them later.

All this sounds to me like the people in the region know that either a) WMDs have been found, and we are validating, or b) we are getting pretty close.

The media will get their chance to bash Bush when he goes in front of the 9/11 Commission, spinning his testimony to make Bush appear weak and ineffectual.

What do you call 14 questions that came straight from McAuliffe's orifice and a 15th that was at least slightly slanted in that direction out of 17?

Susan Estrogen -- even the voice grates. But then with supporters like her and Ted Kennedy, who needs enemies. Let Susan BLAH BLAH screatch -- only Chrissy Matthews whines better.

THE PRESS IS ABSOLUTELY IDIOTIC... ONLY 2 DECENT HALF-WAY INTELLIGENT QUESTIONS IN AN HOUR!!

I want to see W every week looking at the camera (us), not reporters, telling us how proud he is of our Troops and how he is going to stay the course come hell or high water.

Dubya is at his best when he is just talking like a regular guy.

I totally agree. He had some interviews before the election in 2000 (Meet the Press?), that he was smokin' with the answers.

He was very good after church on Sunday, but tonight he was a bit off - not in substance, but on delivery...
