Yes yes yes!!!

"you mean the guy who inserted the phrase'Unchecked (Presidential) Power' into his otherwise unremarkable question"

President Bush demolished this guy! pointing a finger at him was just too choice after this weenie thought he was being oh so cute slipping in that "unchecked power" jab. President Bush was having none of it.

Do you know what publication the guy was with? I do hope Rush plays the clip. I believe Bush called him "Peter". even that made me laugh! CBS John Roberts wanted to be sooooo clever with his opening, "So many questions, so little time", Roberts opined. Bush whacked him down to size by saying, "then keep your questions short!

Peter Baker with the Washington Post:

"Is there going to be a permanent expansion of unchecked power?" Bush: You're not listening to what I'm telling you...you are ascribing some kind of dictatorial power to the president, which I reject

Yeah. I thought the 'Unchecked' comment was waaaaay of the charts and W properly put him in his place. Don't know what affiliation the Lefty had but you could probably take a random pick of any MSM and you would have the same success.

He DID put Roberts down in an excellent fashion, didn't he. I cracked up at the quickness of the retort!

Ooops. See number 12. He was apparently with the WaPo. No surprise there, eh.
