but the White House press corps were grateful for anything
Well then, I guess this has been a clever media policy! Good going, Mr. President.

His poll ratings are sagging, budget deficits are ballooning, jobs are vanishing and American soldiers are dying almost daily in Iraq.... so lets all join Mr Caldwell & the folks down at the Independent in a big hip-hip hooray.

"I will never assume the restraint and goodwill of dangerous enemies when lives of our citizens are at work," he proclaimed during a chest-beating passage about pursuing the war against terrorism.
Well, at least we know W. is his father's son. It has to be genetic. Spook Daddy had a certain speech problem as well.
Perhaps I should refrain from further comment. Wouldn't be prudent at this juncture.

Why does the "Independent" call itself a newspaper anymore? It doesn't produce anything resembling news. A few angry editorials that could be written by naive college students...that's about the sum of it.

Don't like it Mr. Cornwell? Tough!!! I'll take our President Bush any time.

And what does he mean by he flashed that unappealing smirk...? WHAT SMIRK? In four years I've yet to see this so called smirk. I guess you only see it if you're gushing with wild eyed hatred.

No this is an across the pond lecture to the Leftist media hacks and it means-- "Get tough, or you are kicked out of the West's Fifth Column."
To: Roscoe Karns
"On occasion Bush would smile his trade mark crooked smile." That's a much better description, and one a truly unbiased reporter would use. For balance, I tried to find a picture of algore wearing his trademark look - nose slightly raised, upper lip twisted in a faint sneer, gazing haughtily down his nose at someone he believes to be his inferior. I've seen it often enough. Heaven knows he wore that expression through much of the debates in 2000. So far, my Google searches have turned up nada. Hmmm.
