Right. It would be surprising for MSM to know that the Prez's ranch is eco-friendly than Gore's house.

And because it doesn't fit their template it's not largely reported.

There are many things that might surprise the MSM about our Prez. Like this:
Reader of the Free World - A literary luncheon with the president.
Anyone who thinks President George W. Bush is spending sleepless nights worrying about the machinations of the Democratic Congress, or figuring out how a lame duck president can limp from the political battlefield with honor intact, had better think again.
And anyone who likes to regale his friends with references to that illiterate cowboy in the White House is due for some considerable embarrassment when the nonpartisan studies of the Bush years begin to hit the bookshops. - Irwin M. Stelzer @ Weekly Standard.

Instead of watching Murtha on MTP today, is there anyway I can buy an offset credit and have someone else watch it for me?I'm feeling generous this morning...I'll watch MTP for you free of charge. I'll consider it one of my good deeds for the day.

That is an excellent read, however I question where they are going to find the non partisan studies to critique GWB.

You appreciate trivia???? The Sunday Chris Matthews is full of it. I wonder if even Dan Rather decided it wasn't worth his time, but here goes today's silly segment:
Chris Matthews' Sunday Show
Blacks desert Hillary for Obama, her lead cut in half since Jan. Black columnist Clarence says "our folks are finding out who Obama is". 20,000 people in Austin showed up to find out more about Obama. Matthews asks his panel if peooople are looking for a hero, and the panel says yes.
"Is Hillary yesterday's potato?", ask Matthews, and the panel seems to agree.
David Gregory says Obama is riding a wave that might not last. Elizabeth Busmiller says taking Bill to Selma, (he can talk the language), shows Hillary recognizes her problem.
(Matthews interrupts his panel like he does his guests on Hardball. Asks questions then answers it himself. Obama has to win early primaries, Matthews says.
Clarence is surprised Mitt Romney is doing so poorly among Mormons.
Bumiller says Hillary's strength will be the women's vote, & there are more women than blacks.
All the panel agrees, Obama will catch Hillary in the polls before Memorial Day.
oh what fun for Chris, Bush couldn' t bounce a basketball. David Gregory did tell Chris the ball was under-inflated, after Matthews said, "Bush didn't have game" when it came to basketball.
Matthews asks: Is John McCain too old? According to polls it is, by 66%. David Gregory says it's a problem, can be dealt with, with humor. Bumiller reminds Chris of McCain's cancer history, a problem, she says. McCain has already saiad he will put his medical records "out there". Matthews reminds viewers of Reagan's Alsheimers.
The panel doesn't think McCain's age will be a factor.
Wexler signed in to Obama Florida campaign. Big get for Obama.
Bumiller says Bush has his back against the wall in his foreign poliy dealings with North Korea and Syria. Finding out Bush is a pragmatist, she says, doing things he wouldn't have done earlier in his presidency.
Matthews asks, "is there a rift between Bush and Cheney?"
"diminished influence", says Gregory. Bumiller says Cheney was marginalized "
Clarence says, there' evidence of a split. And Chris Matthews wonders, "Will Cheney stick around for the rest of the term?"

Morning AB, everyone, and thanks for the thread. Congratulations to last weeks winners too. Great stuff to read, as usual.

Murtha on MTP saying that the British pulled their troops out of Iraq and that the people voted in November to end the war in Iraq.
Murtha always sounds overwrought and demented.

Does not fit their agenda and also IMHO the Prez has not beaten the drum over it for fear of some of the ultra right wing Republicans/Conservatives going ape over it either. One of these things where he cannot win either way.

It was also good to hear (as a Cheney fan) that the VP looked well after his visit trip which was mentioned in relation to this visit on a post on the dose a couple of days ago.
Here's more info from today's ComPost, I'm jealous, it must have been quite a conversation! (
http://blog.washingtonpost.com/sleuth/): President Bush, noted bookworm, held a private confab with leading neoconservatives in the dining room of the White House residence Wednesday afternoon, hosting British historian Andrew Roberts, author of one of the president's favorite recent books, A History of the English-Speaking Peoples Since 1900.
The president's remarks at the off-the-public-schedule event were... off the record. But one participant in the room described President Bush as "very funny and very lively" and said Vice President Dick Cheney "didn't say a lot" but "looked terrific for a guy who just flew around the world."
Cheney actually took a copy of Roberts' book with him on his surprise trip this week to Afghanistan, where a suicide bomber struck all too close by while the vice president was on Bagram Air Force Base near Kabul.
R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. of The American Spectator asked the Veep, "Were you carrying Roberts' book as reading material or as a shield?" Cheney laughed but assured him: reading material.
Others who attended the coffee klatch included: historian Gertrude Himmelfarb, the wife of Irving Kristol -- a founder of the neoconservative moment -- and mother of Bill Kristol; Allen Guelzo, author of the book Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation; and Irwin Stelzer, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, which lists a "senior advisor" named Lewis Libby.
We're told there was no discussion, however, at the private White House meeting of the Libby trial and the possible impending verdict.
Also in the room were White House chief of staff Josh Bolton and Karl Rove, the man who needs no introduction.
Besides history and discussion of the United States' English-speaking allies, the neocons talked fleetingly about one of their favorite topics: the Clintons.
Tyrrell hawked his forthcoming book, The Clinton Crack-Up: The Boy President's Life After The White House, and Roberts joked that if Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) becomes president, then Tyrrell is welcome to come live in the basement of his home in London.

...for fear of some of the ultra right wing Republicans/Conservatives going ape over it either. By that canard, you seem to buy into the Dem caricature of conservatives being against measures that conserve energy and rein in pollution. That is simply ridiculous. Why would any "ultra right wing Republicans/Conservatives" go ape over the fact that Bush has an energy efficient home?

He sounds that way because he is senile and none of the Rats are willing to give him the hook. They created this monster to use him thinking they could harness and cage him after he was their useful idiot. Boy, were they wrong! They built him up and made him their radical anti war star for over a Year, and they are so surprised he won't just disappear. He may be senile, but I bet he has a lot of scary documents that the Rats are afraid he will bring out should they diss him and try to stick him in the far corner with a dunce hat firmly affixed.
