Per Fox News, President Bush to hold Press Conference at 10 A.M.
"President Bush looks like he has a secret he is just busting out to tell...he's very upbeat...very confident...one wonders.....as the elections get closer....is there a BIG NEWS ITEM we are going to hear about?"
I thought the same thing when he first stepped up to the podium....he had a little smirk on his face that didn't go away for long thoughout the news conference.
One of the best PCs he's ever conducted. Of course, Katie and Russert are immediately telling us what the REAL deal is.
Will show news conference again at 8:00 PM prime time.
Can't stand Bridget Quinn......turned to MSNBC. Not much better there.....
Meek, if you don't mind, when you hear what the President is announcing (or what this is about), let me know...The Iraqi elections will go forward January 30th was his main message, just as I expected.
He also mentioned his proposal for Social Security private accounts for youngsters.
Big stuff goin' on, and Bush is tacking the BIG STUFF in his second administration!
Yes! SPEND that political capital, President Bush! :^D
What about Auberon Waugh?
I like the idea of President Bush stealing the senate's thunder this morning. While Biden blathers on and on, the media's attention is on a Presidential Press Conference.
Oh, I was going to take a break but thanks to your post went to CSPAN2 in time to see Biden arching his eyebrows making one of his faces that is supposed to convey folksiness.
LOL
Peter Jennings is..distrubed that the President didn't say more about the chopper crash and just how bad a day it is in Iraq.
AAAAGGGGGHHHHH!!!!
David Gregory, looking suspiciously like Homer Simpson, looks concerned, deeply concerned.
"One of the best PCs he's ever conducted. Of course, Katie and Russert are immediately telling us what the REAL deal is."
Yes, it was one of Bush's best press conferences. He was on fire, adamant, visionary and relaxed. The press must be feeling like they swallowed a carp. lol
After the conference, ABC (Jennings) and CBS (Rather) immediately went into "deathtoll mode", reminding everyone how terrible things are in Iraq and how there's no chance for peaceful elections. The horror, the horror ...
CSPAN too just said they were full...try again later.....WOO HOO!
Did anyone learn anything new from this conference?
I stand corrected it was about 45 mins.
The NBC crew was extremely agitated by the lack of respect the Prez showed the mighty elites today.
Where were you guys last November when Bayh was running for re-election? People have known this stuff about him for a long time. During the impeachment he voted not to impeach X42. The stuff about Bayh goes back a lot longer than just this month.
"Peter Jennings is..distrubed that the President didn't say more about the chopper crash and just how bad a day it is in Iraq."
Yea, like all the press was "disturbed" because Bush's inaugural address didn't center around the fact that we are in a quagmire and losing the war in Iraq. Shameless!!!
