I just talked to my mother. She said everyone she knows is saying how the Media is making a fool of themselves.

If you live long enough, every one of us has one of those life-flashing-before-our-eyes incidents. Like that heart-stopping moment a child darts across the street in front of your car, or you get a phone call in the middle of the night. There but for the grace of God and my guardian angels go I.

The common man instinctively feels for his fellow man in the face of a tragic accident. The mediots are braying jackasses who are trying to savage a good man who has had his heart put under tremendous stress this week. If I didn't know better I'd swear they don't care how they do him in, literally or figuratively, as long as they get the job done.

I think your mother is right. When it was still a rather new story my 20 year old granddaughter was listening to the Wash. press corps question the press secretary. She was laughing hysterically at the questions and the ignorance displayed by the press, and she is not particularly politically astute.
