My W bona fides can not be in doubt, but I have to take issue with:

"I have to say that President Bush is doing SO great tonight..."

DUDE- pass what ever you are smoking. This press conference is a bust. His speaking has been horrible, jokes flat (and attempts at humor), nothing fluid. W is not convincing anyone on social security, judges, or Iraq. Does not sounds strong at all - stutters. And he should not have called President Putin by his first name "Vladimir." Bad form.

Sorry - gotta call them like I see them.

Clinton, now that man could do a press conference. Yeah, everything he said was a lie, but he could sell them.

I respectfully disagree.

[TFine80]

I agree....

This press conference is lame. He's not aggressive enough. Not going after the fakes in his own party. And he's way too relaxed and lazy.

[Miss Marple]

Horsefeathers. He is doing great and your comment about Clinton is quite telling.

Nonsense.

Clinton? Every time I watched a pc with him I felt he was trying to seduce me/us- and that was before Monica. Fine for a movie star- odd for a president.

Well I didn't buy his snake oil and neither did a lot of other people. And it wasn't very hard for Clintoon to handle the softballs the lamestream threw to him either.

You expect the enemy to laugh at Bush's jokes?

The whole thing for the reporters is to trip up Bush and make him look crooked, dumb, or mean....

I don't think they did any of the above, so IMHO, success!!
