There are certain things that Bush wants to talk about because it is what he is trying to get congress off their butts to do---

Immigration reform is lower on the list and unless you suggest "planting" a reporter to ask that question, well....

you should join me on the steps of the Capital - that's where I plan on dying. I'm going to sit there with a placard, complaining, until I check out.

So far my retirement plan to hit the lottery has failed. At least now, you've given me options. :^)

Thought there would be questions about the roadmap, the keystone issue of the NE.

I thought Stretch was Bill Sammon's nickname.

There have always been two called "Stretch". Bill Sammon is "Big Stretch".

Bill Sammon wasted his question by repeating the "Are you responsible for the partisanship?"

Wow, he's usually a good reporter.

I don't know why reporters repeat questions. Don't they have enough creativity to come up with new ones.

Also, next time there's something like this, I"m gonna post a Thread for people to report only.

It's more than a little annoying to scroll through hundreds of posts that TELL ME NOTHING ABOUT WHAT WAS SAID.

can't you guys make a sep. comment thread?

late to thread but watching.

I just enjoyed the shoot down of "leading by poll".

I think he made it clear that push polling will not work.

His cut the BS style is going to play well OUTside the beltway.

If you look at how the MSM/"Old" media plays the game you will only get depressed. We are the "New" media. We can and will set the pace. Let the losers follow. We will lead.

Yes.... Bush should avoid the North Korea question, and change the subject to border control.

I agree....

This press conference is lame. He's not aggressive enough. Not going after the fakes in his own party. And he's way too relaxed and lazy.

Why not appreciate that he's bringint the issue to the fore and trying to do something?

That's good. A 'limited government' Republican praising FDR and Social Security. Why expect a 'limited government' Republican from doing anything to actually limit government? I should be grateful for all the extras shouldn't I? I should just thank the good Lord above daily for nationalized drugcare, No Child Left Behind, and 'protecting' Social Security. Yep, that's conservative.
