New Tone Meets Tone Deaf
Poor hapless Bush is not media savvy, and that has been one of his major shortcomings.
Like President Ford, one of the most gifted athetes portrayed as a klutz by the media, Bush is our only MBA, Harvard at that, who ever served as President, yet he is an incompetent moron as depicted by the media.
How difficult is it for Bush to avoid dumb soundbites when interviewing with the bottom-feeder CBS?
Is he really that naive?
I just don't understand his inability to fight back at the media.
Why not say...
"Under Saddam, Iraq may have appeared to be stable to outsiders, but its because its people were in chains, one step away from rape, torture and death."
"Iraqis just voted in record numbers in free elections - for a former Middle East terrorist regime, you can't get much closer to stability than that. Victory is near."
"America has give hope to Iraqis, and for their children, and grandchildren. Why would you deny them the chance for a real future?"
Where the hell is the GOP? Public Relations? Where is any conservative today, other than hiding under Nancy Petulant's skirt?
If there were republicans on the hill with spine, the CinC wouldn't have to piddle around trying to explain every move... now would he. If I knew some protest voters were going to slam the party this bad... they might as well had axed all of them. Yikes! I said that?
"....yet he is an incompetent moron as depicted by the media."
He sure makes it easy for them.
Never go to war against anybody that buys ink by the barrel.
