And why is the White House on the ropes with this? Why is Scott McClellan strumming his lip helplessly while Terry Moran and David Gregory savage him? Why, indeed, does the White House even permit Moran and Gregory to come in and p!$$ on the staff and the office of the President?
I am beyond sympathy for the President and all who serve him. I'm now into annoyance that they allow these media hyenas to diminish the office. It must stop and the President has the authority to stop it.
the white house political war room, and specifically McClellan as spokesman, stinks on just about every single issue. no surprise there.
the white house should never have given up on the Iraq/Niger connection (since its true) until they verified how the forged documents were placed into the intel stream (they were planted as a poison pill to discredit the story). that fact is totally gone from the story now - now its about this nonsense of releasing the name of a "covert" CIA agent, and the washington press corps hystrionics, and giving the idiots on the left a rallying point.
Because the matter is under criminal investigation and the prosecutor has asked them not to comment on the case.
Therefore McClellan is making no comment.
Moran and Gregory are acting like children who can't get their way, and they'd be fired by respectable news organizations for their actions because they make the news organization look bad and hurt it's credibility.
I suspect their credibility will be damaged even more when the investigation is concluded and all the facts come out.
Rove and the administration know the facts, and I suspect they're playing this in this manner for a reason.
Only those who believe in the left's mantra religously will continue to take the main stream media and the far left seriously while they keep doing this crap. Unfortunately, that's still a lot of people. Fortunately, the voting public is becomming more informed through other sources.
Let the main stream media keep lowering their credibility.
Let the liberals froth at the mouth about someone who's a political strategist.
What's the democratic party's platform? What do they believe in? Why should people vote for them?
We know they are for gay marriage, against the war, and they like raising taxes.
Those things aren't going to win them elections.
We hear this complaint everytime the Dems/MSM think they are nailing the Bush Administration with some HUGE scandel.
Even I get frustrated waiting for the White House to put these little twits in their place.
But EVERY time the Dems/MSM end up with looking like fools when their accusations turn into nothing.
This is what happened with the "Bush-Enron" scandel, the "Bush-Lied" 9/11 Commission fiasco.
Sometimes I think Bush tells his people to look weak just to draw his accusers into a trap, and then make fools of them.
