Yes.

But, he deserves better :-)

Did Blair just endorse the new Israeli proposal? That's big news.

Bush - "Blair is a stand up kinda guy" :-)

[Molly Pitcher]

Thanks, tuned in just as Blair started speaking...

[Destro]

I hope for Bush's sake Blair does all the talking.

What the hell do you mean by that comment?

[Eurotwit]

I think the President's opening statement was excellent.

[TonyInOhio]

Usual stupid question from an American reporter..."Did you discuss a war plan with Rumsfled against Iraq in November 2001? Why weren't you focusing on Afghanistan?"

President smacks him down. I wish he'd do it literally. :-)

[carton253]

Bush does just fine when he speaks.

[Dog]

Reporter wants Blair and Bush to admit their mistakes.........what is the heck wrong with these nitwit reporters.

[TonyInOhio]

Blair says "what President Bush and I are saying is that we will stay there (Iraq) and we will get the job done".

Bravo!

[TomGuy]

Wonder whether the BBC reporter will as Tony Blair when he is going to apologize?

[No Blue States]

Without these 2 men, The world would be in much worse shape.

I don't have access to hear the conference at the moment. From what you just posted, that's probably best. I don't think I can take one more of these hateful so-called questions from the press. The President has a lot more patience than I do.
