Donald Rumsfeld was asked by Jim Lehrer on the News Hour on PBS just now if his low poll numbers bothered him. This was after one tiresome question after another about how the polls prove Americans hate Bush, the war in Iraq and everything else Republican-related. Rumsfeld came up with the best, in-your-face reply: "If you look where the news media is, it's down very low in the polls. If you want to get into public opinion polls, people in that business are right down near the bottom. You know that. Does it bother you?" Lehrer looked embarrassed and could only respond "I ask the questions here."
That's why I love Rumsfeld! He's not afraid to stuff it right back in the hideous faces of the media pukes unlike the rest of the administration that just plays so prissy and fearful with the leftist media.

Lehrer, you punk pizz-ant! You couldn't carry Rumsfeld's night water with the reverence it deserves.

I wish someone would ask Lehrer if it "bothers him" that he looks like he's been sucking a lemon for fifty years.

Lehrer is a moderate Republican, he ran for office once. So did I. Unfortunately, in preschool he who has the most toys wins so I came in second place.
Hey, McCain ran as a moderate Republican too!

What's a moderate republican? Is it McCain?
I wouldn't say that makes Lehrer a conservative by any means.
To: MikeA
Murtha and McLame are the constant fall back positions for the MSM.
Both should be ashamed that they help perpetuate the lies
Too bad no one watches PBS, Rummy kicked butt.
