Iraq is a prime example. My best estimate on Iraq is that it's a dangerous place, but nothing is going on there that threatens our forces or the democracy we are setting up. Yet I hear even conservative commentators saying Bush's approval is low because "the war in Iraq isn't going well." That's what happens when you hunker down and don't answer your critics.
Got an earful of this just yesterday while waiting in a crowded medical office. CNN was blaring away, and the group assembled there was cheering on the propaganda.
I agree with you. I don't think Scott Mclellan, WH Press Secretary, is doing a good job. Like Miers, he's Bush crowd from Texas, and the president isn't going to fire him.
Scott, please help your beloved president, and pull a Miers, will you?
I happen to agree with you on this. I have blogged and written articles for years saying that conservative-Pubs never fire back in defense or even go on the offense. Our side lets the MSM and their DNC allies set the agendas. These polls may be a bit skewed but they , like Goebbel's lies, repeated enough and enough, people will indeed believe them. Rush is great but should not be laughing here. He should be encouraging his and our allies to fire back every day as ole Chuckie Schumer does before every camera and mic in creation!!
