I am watching/listening to an old videotape made by my mother in August 2004. Guests included
Fran Townsend on FNS
Rudy Giuliani, followed by Tommy Franks on with Steffi
Condoleeza Rice, followed by Dennis Hastert on MTP
Those were the days!!!
Of course the questioning has not changed:
Everything that President Bush is doing is wrong
Are we going into a recession?
Are the Swift Boat vets going over the line?
Is Tom Ridge overreacting?
Why doesn’t Dennis Hastert call Congress into session (in the middle of August) to act on the 9-11 Commission recommendations RIGHT NOW!!! [Russert pounding desk]
etc
Safire and Mo Dowd on panel with Russert giving their opinion on how to combat the terror threat.
NB: Mo just said that President Bush’s nickname for her is Cobra. (I can see the reason why.)
What an apt nickname - no doubt once the President leaves office we will hear a few more nicknames coming out and I suspect not all will be that complimentary
