Press Conference Smack-Down

What a fantastic press conference today. President Bush really did the office of the President proud. Even the liberal media, in some quarters, thought he was at his best today, perhaps even to the point of bettering his performance just after the twin towers fell on 9/11.

I listened to the President's opening statement and then a few questions from the White House press corp. What a pathetic bunch of losers. The questions for the most part weren't questions at all but statements of opinion delivered with all the grace of a pit bull.

In truth, I was appalled but the lack of curtsey and manners that these people displayed. I can't refer to them as journalist as they didn't display any of the characteristics of journalism. They gave the President of the United States less courtesy and respect than they would have given some drunk off the street. Their manners and lack of professionalism are despicable!

Their behavior this morning was a show case for venting of hate and rage for a man that has displayed, for all the world to see, leadership and compassion for the human condition. Yet he is attacked for possessing such qualities.

I wonder if they know what a sorry lot they truly are? Do they understand that a very bright light is shining on them?

Through it all, George Bush made those hateful people look like the empty suits they are. George was smooth and to the point on every topic. He was aggressively positive about every policy and program associated with the war and the NSA intercepts.

The High light of the press conference was when someone asked him what he thought about Russ Feingold's censure proposal on the wire taps and that their was talk about impeachment.

His answer was classic - he said those that believe this is a bad program, they should go to the American people and tell them that if they elect him or her to be President in 2008, they will stop the intercepts of terrorists phone calls into this country. This is called 'pu-up or shut-up'.

Now how cool is that for a come back. I wonder what Russ has to say about that!
