Peter Jennings Criticises President Bush's Leadership During this Crisis

[IWONDR]

Anyone been listening to Peter Jennings on ABC?

He is criticising President Bush saying it's been two hours since he spoke from Florida; that the President needs to demonstrate more vigorous leadership during this crisis. With the largest attack against the U.S. (internal to our borders) in history, how can this talking head suggest that the President needs to be making PR appearances, when he needs to be conferring with top security officials within the government and elsewhere in order to ascertain whom was responsible, and to coordinate and develop an appropriate response?

I think we need somehow to let Peter Jennings and ABC know that we cannot accept this ridiculous criticism of Pres. Bush when the nation is in the midst of this crisis. PR, would of course, be the first response from our former Prez, and Peter would be lauding ex42 regardless of what he had done, if this had occurred on his watch.

David Hackworth on Abc the last hour. Says we are at War and we need to go in and get Bin Ladden.

Oh yeah! Peter shut up and go away.

Get your butt back to Canada, Pete. This report makes me puke.

Missing Link last night had a question about which national broadcaster was a Canadian high school dropout. Yup, Peter Jennings.

[Dr. Frank fan]

That blow dried Canadian high school dropout needs to shut his damn trap or get the hell out of our (not his) country.

And that's all I have to say about that.

[DoughtyOne]

Deport that idiot. This isn't time to eat our own. Despite misgivings about Bush, he is our President. It's time to rally behind the flag.

Of course Peter hails to another flag, being a Canadian.

[Highest Authority]

He's not even an American Citizen, so his words are worthless!!!!

[lasereye]

When Bush addresses the nation, he should invoke Pearl Harbor. This is worse than Pearl Harbor in some ways.

[HiJinx]

How long did it take FDR to address Congress after Pearl Harbor? Did Edward Murrow criticize him? Would Peter have criticized FDR?

[newsperson999]

what does he want him to do? go live on the air holding hands and sing songs every 5 min?

[Russ]

I, too, saw this pathetic person and heard his comments. Even Paul Begala, on MSNBC, said Bush's advisors and the Secret Service are doing the right thing. I'd call Jennings an a**hole but it would only give a**holes a bad name!

[DittoJed2]

Revoke his citizenship and send him back to Canada. Katie Couric is blaming Bush too. Send her as well and anyone else who opens their mouth. Satan is to blame for this and those who serve him.

[mountaineer]

How was Bush supposed to speak from the air? He made another statement when he landed in Louisiana. Peter Jennings can sod off.

[rockfish59]

yep! i have the station on that carries rush, medved & savage and they put this idiot on. he's gone now so maybe some phone calls got him pulled. go back to canada jennings, you phony pr**k!

[WHATNEXT?]

You are absolutely right!! I tried to email our abc affiliate. I want Jennings off the air. Is his job to REPORT THE NEWS or criticize Pres. Bush. Big mistake. When the horror of todays events are over we should not forget the partisan questions of Jennings. Get him off the air.

[ALOHA RONNIE]

...JENNINGS Screwed STREISAND ...Screw JENNINGS...

[CheneyChick]

Brit Hume & Fox News is my source of information this morning. Peter Jennings is an idiot, along with all the other alphabet news channels blabbering yahoos.

[vannrox]

Message to Peter Jennings...

We don't need this kind of nonsense right now. You would attack Bush no matter what he did. So just be quiet. Now is the time of quiet reflection and peace. Your statements simply indicate just how out of touch you are from REAL Americans.

[Jimhimself]

It is no real secret that the ABC, CBS & NBC anchors are abjectly arrogant. They should do what readers are paid to do and that is to read what is on the teleprompter and keep their idealogical smegma to themselves or be FIRED.

[The Drowning Witch]

I'm watching NBC, and now McCain is putting in his 2 cents...talk about ghoulish media pimping....

[KLT]

Oh yeah! Peter shut up and go away.

I didn't hear little Peter criticize Clintooon when he bombed an aspirin factory, and an empty terrorist camp while Lewinsky testified....Geeze, what a moron!
