The President should give a live news conference, in prime time next. These folks are too funny. Elections have consequences....The President must have really hit a home run last night, dems go bonkers today.

That's rich. They want "rebuttals" to the President's national security speeches. They have truly crossed over to the other side.

LMAO, Pelosi and Reid should be careful of what they wish for. If they got "fair coverage," the media would cease to focus solely on the president's perceived shortcomings and actually tell us something negative about the Democrats for a change, like their knee-jerk partisanship and attack Bush on everything and anything mentality that grips them instead of the exclusively fawning coverage their given by the Clown Car Media.

The Republicans get 1 minute for every 100 minutes of Rats now, it's just the Republicans make the most out of their 1 minute and the Rats just ramble on.

Funny. I don't seem to recall similar concerns being expressed when Clinton was using the bully pulpit.

These people are so funny; they OWN the networks, there is not one conservative anchor on the big three; there are no real conservative pundits on any channel except FNC, and they balance it with a dem. Again I say, their internal polls must be showing President Bush and the pubbies are making progress with their message. Too funny.

I agree. The network should devote fair coverage to house and senate democrats. They should tell the people how these people try to censor the networks, how they vote, and what they will do if--god forbid--they gain the power again, and who their backers are.

This is a good idea. The more media exposure they get, the more likely they are to say something stupid a'la Claire McCaskill.

They can't survive the sunlight. The only reason they are doing well now is because the Republicans can't get their act together and they are sitting there saying 'We aren't Republicans'.

The more speeches they give, the more they talk, the worse they do.

So, the Democrat party's main function now is to write complaining letters and threats to the media as opposed to working with the President to wage the war on terror. Why am I not surprised?

"Congressional Democrats have a wealth of experience, authority, and the ideas as to how we could better secure our nation, combat terrorism, and ensure a significant transition in Iraq."

HAHAHAHA!!!!! It's so hard to take them seriously when they spout crap like this. They must be prepping for their Reid & Pelosi stand-up gig at the Palace:

Harry Reid: "Say goodnight, Nancy."

Nancy Pelosi: "Are you questioning my patriotism?"

President Bush hit a home run last night and a couple last week, many Dems are starting to spit just like Chrissy does when he gets upset.

Yeah, weren't they screaming about Bush's speech last night being "political," it wasn't, yet they are mad because they weren't given opportunity to bash the president's dignified and somber remarks? The president lead the nation in remembrance of 9-11 and reported to the American people, appropriately, on where we're at in the war on terror and to plea for patience and unity. Yet Democrats wanted to turn it into a political brawl like everything else they do and say. Then this morning they hypocritically accused the president of playing politics with 9-11. Typical of these DemoCrites.

I think I see the theme for their excuses after they lose a few seats in the November elections - "the media isn't being fair to us."

This is ridiculous. If the president believes that 9/11 signalled the beginning of a war of which Iraq is a key part, then he had an obligation to use last night's speech as a call for wartime unity.

Over and over again, Republican Senators need to state that the Democrats are blinded by their irrational dislike and distrust of President Bush. Question their patriotism, question their judgment, hit them hard.
