And who is going to carry this message to the American people for you? Not the Politically Corrupted media. They made VERY sure to either not cover, minimally cover or cover hostilly anything the President did to get his message out on Iraq. It not the message people, it the medium. The Politically Corrupt media in the late 1990s gave up even the illusion of objectivity. Take for example the month of June. Bush did 3 hours a week on Iraq. What did the "News" media report about these Iraq presenations? A Reporter's stupid question about Libby! They simply tuned out all the facts on Iraq to fixate on their own fantasy political axe. The solution here is NOT to mindlessly squeal the "Bully Pulpit" dogmas of the 1970s ers Political Sience Major but to grasp the reality that the Politically Corrupted "News Media" cannot be saved but must be replaced. The next Republican President should simply limit access of the Junk Media to responding to the nonsense spewed by his foes (which I agree this President should of done more forcemably) and develop talk radio, the blogs etc as a counter wieght to their partisan extermism. This ALSO means Republican Congressional Leaders have to get off their dead butts and HELP him. The Republican Congress spent the last 7 years hiding from the media and letting Bush twist in the wind. The ONLY time you ever saw a Republican out there was when they were attacking the President. The President has GOT to have a team. Conservatives cannot sit on their butts whining for someone to come fix everything for them. They have to get off their butts and HELP get the message out.
