It's amazing, isn't it? The "reporter" thinks he's the one starting with all the information...

Count "reporter" among the words forever divested of its original meaning, thanks to the manipulations of the left, along with "gay", "choice", "tolerance", "diversity", and "democrat", among many others that are dearly departed from the English language.

Yep, the press has taken off their masks over the past year. We now see them for the anti-American marxist propagandists they've been since the end of WWII. That's when the NYTimes branded the Nazis and Fascists as being "right-wing" so as not to cast aspersions on their dear friends in the USSR.

Chalk this one up as proof that the Main Stream Media has an extreme liberal bias.

They can't handle that they got busted for lying....so now they have gone off the deep end.

Media....and lawyers......

McClellan has a tough job I couldn't do with a straight face.

After enough inane questions my responses to these White House distorters, er, I mean reporters would involve an "F" and an "O" and it wouldn't be a cheer.

Are you asking them to write a story about how great the American military is; is that what you're saying here?

It says something that she considers the notion so ridiculous as make it effective sarcasm.

Is there a list of the names of the WH press corps and who they are representing?

Q With respect, who made you the editor of Newsweek? Do you think it's appropriate for you, at that podium, speaking with the authority of the President of the United States, to tell an American magazine what they should print?

I thought Newsweek's defense was that the Pentagon had the story for 11 days and did not confirm/deny it. It sounds like Newsweek was blaming the administration for not proofing their copy.

Now reporters are blaming the administration for acting like editors?

The White House press HATE Bush, and now they are fighting for "one of their own", like a mother protecting her child, so I would expect nothing less than a vicious attack on McClellan, which is Bush's stand in for their venom and tripe!!!

When LSM reporters preface something "with respect" we know that what follows will display the opposite of respect. It's a whiny, dishonest convention they go through - when they're about to treat someone with contempt and loathing - that they have to pretend THEY are decent, honorable, respectful people.

In fact, jackals like Elisabeth Bumiller have contempt and loathing for everyone who is not a parrot of their left-liberal fantasies. I know this well, I spent most of my life around these people before leaving Boston/NYC for the great Rocky Mtn. west!! (where we also have some NYT-loving jackals, but not in the same proportions)

The New York Times' White House correspondent Elizabeth Bumiller signs an autograph after her talk Wednesday in Rosenfeld Hall titled "Shock, Awe, and Battle Fatigue." Bumiller described the trials of reporting on the Bush White House. (PHILIP RUCKER/CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER)

In a lecture titled "Shock, Awe and Battle Fatigue: Covering the Bush White House," Bumiller described reporting on what she called "one of the most secretive administrations in history." Roughly 60 people -- only about five of whom were Yale students -- attended the lecture in Rosenfeld Hall.

"The White House has set a troubling standard for secrecy," she said. "I worry that future administrations will look at this White House as a model that has worked fairly well."

I am looking for a copy of the Koran, but I must purchase it in secret. Once I get the piece of s - - - I plan to hang it on the bush that my dog relieves himself on each morning during our walk. As I understand it that vile rag is about the size of a Reader's Digest. Has anyone ever tried to flush a Reader's Digest down the toilet? You would think that a Newsweek reporter or editor would have enough common sense to dismiss this lie right off the bat. By the way, the same slippery scum that was incarcerated at Gitmo began putting out that story after being released. You have to be a liberal to be stupid enough to believe the flushing story.

No, I think you've done enough.
