One of the questioners was someone named Victoria.

I liked the fact that Tony managed to mention HIS own care for himself that led to his colon cancer detection and treatment.

And that he said these reporters should be looking to the value of common sense (instead of implying that President and Mrs. Bush are parents to us all to show us how to manage our health care). argh

Laura Bush (God bless her) did not play to the contemporary script..."I am a victim of this terrible disease, and, as such, I will do what you expect me to do and revel in it and tell you all how I now have a platform to save thousands of lives, blah, blah" and since she did not do what they have come to require, they had a cognitive dissonance that they could not handle.

Exactly Gretchen especially with the skin cancer thing there has been so much publicity about this for last 10 - 20 years anyone who is not aware has been living in a bubble like they excuse the President of doing.
