Wow, President Bush has really taken control of the current G8 Summit Press Conference

Fox News | me

[ladyesk]

He's really showing some attitude!

[onyx]

Ping an expert...
I'm a computer dunce.

[Salvation]

He was really on a roll, wasn't he?

(Taking lessons from #40?)

[Salvation]

**And he's doing a great press smackdown while he's doing it.**

I loved it!

[reformed_democrat]

I still remember how they would tare Nancy to shreds .. whether it be her dresses or her cloths .. oh and then there was the china . . .

I remember that, too.

I'm waiting for the local liberal rag to run that as a comment, so I can write a letter to the editor reminding him that Hillary bought china and furniture as well, but Nancy had the good grace to leave what she bought at the White House.

[small voice in the wilderness]

Did you see that?? Gorbachev placed his hand on President Reagan's casket. That truly touched my soul.

The dems. are going to go catatonic.

[gramho12]

".. my hubby took control of my TV .."

Thank goodness we have 2 TVs. I'm obessed with watching almost every little morsel of this tribute to the "Gipper", and my hubby sees a little and that's good enough for him. Last night here on FR it was sort of like the beginning of a 12-step program, admitting we were fascinated by watching people move by the casket.

Also, did anyone see Peggy Noonan on C-span today? I would have missed it but I was a little under the weather and switched on the TV. She was absolutely awesome.

[onyx]

Yes, I connected.
You made it easy.
Watching now, but
doubt it'll include his Q and A session
which is GOLD.

Ambrose, see #100

[mhking]

THe President called on Jonathon ??? of CNN.

Probably Jonathan Karl, if memory serves me correctly...

Must be my popup blocker in the browser blocking it.

I got an answer for that.

[Salvation]

Jom Angle the Fox guy wasn't there and I think someone else stood up......was it Carl Cameron that he said this to?

[Christian4Bush]

Is Mr. Gregory the one that Laura Ingraham calls "Blowhair Boy"?

[Salvation]

Yep, time to leave to go back to Washington and meet with Nancy Reagan at the Blair House and visit the Capitol.

[small voice in the wilderness]

I'm hoping C-Span will replay the press conference. Another FReeper said maybe it was Jonathan Karl/CNN. I wasn't paying attention to the question, until W. said that! By then, the press-holes name had already been said.

[Dolphy]

Thanks for the ping.

You are absolutely right about the way the press treated the Reagans. I have had several people mention to me since Saturday that they are just shocked that the press now reports as if they had some sort of fair-minded, evenhanded coverage during the Reagan years. It was nothing of the sort. The parallels with the current administration (which will also leave a world changing impact on millions and millions of people) is quite amazing.

I'm sorry I missed President Bush this afternoon, hopefully I'll get to see it later on C-Span.

[Catspaw]

My hubby took me out to eat last night. I debated between going or staying home to watch the coverage. Food someone else cooked won out--but I hit the "record" button before I left.

[Salvation]

the live with and not live with was a LOL line for me!

[onyx]

I bookmarked Reuters TV.
It's not bad.

[My2Cents]

I'm looking forward to Bush's comments at the Reagan memorial service tomorrow. W does his best when he's talking about the values that make America great, and when he's reminding the Americans that our strength as a people derive from our faith in God. I still believe the best speech he's given was the memorial at the National Cathedral two days after 9/11.

[Republican Red]

it sounds like the WMD are up his sleeve too

I heard Paul Harvey this morning talk about a bunch of missile engines from Iraq found in Jordon. It was the first I had heard of this. The engine parts were a big no-no and the UN investigators are very interested. I think I heard that the engine parts were part of a scrap metal delivery from Iraq.

Interesting.

[My2Cents]

Perhaps the mantle of Ronald Reagan has fallen on W?
