Thursday was no average day for a president who mostly keeps 9-to-5 hours. And White House aides admitted in private that they jammed more into Bush's day than they normally would in order to give NBC cameras an idea of the breadth of what their boss does.
First of all, it is common knowledge that President Bush is in the office much earlier than 9am. Also, can you believe that they are trying to say that White House aides said they packed more in for the cameras? This is complete and utter B.S. (that an aide said this)
I think the alleged civility towards President Bush from the press since 9/11 has gone by the wayside. Sondra is one of the worst, and none too subtle. The problem is that she just keeps rehashing the old tripe.
