The NY Times can go straight to hell as far as I'm concerned. Just what would THEY tell that little boy? They are such JERKS! I thought the President's response was just perfect. I believe it was just what that little boy needed to hear; he had enough sadness on his plate right then.
I was watching the O'Reilly Factor last night, ( though I normally don't because I'm usually freepin at that time of night) and he was talking about a survey done by a Media watchdog group. In the past year about 72% of the stories about Bush in the Times have been negative; can't say I was surprised. Of all the the major TV networks and newspapers, the one closes to being fair (besides Fox) was CBS with about 52% of their reporting being negative toward the President.
So I take what I read in the Times with a huge bucket of salt!
