Following the regular denials of media bias, New York Times reporter Elisabeth Bumiller recently asked a question of President Bush at a press conference on the Wolfowitz nomination to head the World Bank. It began:
Paul Wolfowitz, who was the-a chief architect of one of the most unpopular wars in our history-
It occurred to me that the New York Times isn't trying hard enough. So here's my Top Ten Other Questions from the New York Times for President Bush:
10: Given that you are unanimously hated by every single individual in the rest of the world, how do you expect your nomination of John Bolton as Ambassador to the U. N. to be received?
9: How do you explain today's unjust murder of dozens of freedom fighters opposing our oppressive occupation of Iraq?
8: How many wheelchair-bound grandmothers do you feel should be punished mercilessly in order to enact your Social Security privatization proposals that benefit only your Wall Street fat cat donors?
7: Do you think that women should be forced into back-alley abortions with coathangers to satisfy your ultra-right-wing Christian conservative base?
6: How many of your aides did gay prostitute-turned-reporter (but I repeat myself) Jeff Gannon have to have sex with to secure a White House press pass?
5: Will you personally murder each and every caribou in ANWR just to satisfy the capitalist bloodlust for oil?
4: When did you learn about Karl Rove's plot to engineer health problems for President Clinton?
3: Have you any thoughts on ending the fascist suppression of the hero of the Western Hemisphere, Fidel Castro?
2: In what ways do you find yourself similar to the person to whom you are most often compared, Adolph Hitler?
... and finally...
1: How does the role of Halliburton in the election fraud in Ohio, 2004, compare with the machinations of Enron on your behalf in Florida, 2000?
I thought this WAS how they framed their questions!
It is, this is my job application. If there's money being paid for total BS I want a share of that!
