" Bush fights back by actions, not words. He fights back by television appearances.
He fights back by getting rid of that Scott doofus who holds the daily White House briefing.
He doesn't score points by doing his "off the record" bit with the NYTimes and other White House press lowlifes who will use words of their own choosing.
And he certainly shouldn't diss the blogosphere."
Absolutely.
President Bush has the bully pulpit- not the media.
But, you wouldn't know it by the behavior of the White House.
Especially in the so called " Communications " Office.
Every day Scott McClellan is rolled by the likes of Terry Moran and Dana Milbank , as they set the agenda.
It is beyond comprehension and very troubling that no one in the White House has yet realized how abysmal and damaging these daily press briefings are to the President.
Ping me if you ever hear the phrase " McClellan was masterful today in his handling of the press. "
It makes you remember how good Ari was.
They are? I am surprised so many "Conservatives" still take the Dinosaur Media seriously. Listening to the Dinosaurs is the equivalent of listening to radio Tokyo in 1943. After all in the same time the US Economy posted 3.8 GDP Growth, virtually every major published "news" outlet suffered major revenue losses.
