Will Bush ever hold another Press Conference?

[frank frankly]

Seriously, will he?

Does anyone know?

[realFedUp]

1. what's the point?

:-)

[Cat Atomic]

2. Yep. He'll have one all rehearsed and ready for prompt delivery

right after their domestic terror attacks start next summer. No running like a chickenshit this time, boyo! Next time he'll be prepared!

[frank frankly]

3. When is it?

It will be an amazing display of crackheadedness.

Does anybody know the schedule for these things?

[gristy]

13. There is explicitly NO schedule.

The last one was announced less than 24 hours before its scheduled time, if I recall correctly.

[La_Serpiente]

4. What's the point

He says the same Gawwd damned things the same time. "We are giving them freedom, we are saving them, blah blah blah"

[BigLed]

5. another?

when was the first one?

}(

[not_in_my_name]

6. I hope he does and that it's

set up like the scripted one he had - remember? He had a seating chart and called on "reporters" from that? He knew the questions to be asked; his answers were written down for him. Would love to see something like this again - absolute comedy at it's finest!

[Athletic Grrl]

8. I remember that one....

....Bush is so shitty off the cuff he has to make sure Helen Thomas doesn't sneak in there and ask him something remotely intellectual. :evilgrin:

btw, welcome to DU. :kick:

[not_in_my_name]

10. Thanks! And it sure wasn't a good idea

to make an enemy of Helen Thomas. I think my favorite question of that scripted press conference was the last one - the softball - something about how does his faith keep him going - what a joke!

[pinkpops]

7. There's something the candidates could be pounding him on

If they would pledge to have weekly or monthly conferences and challenge him to do the same.

[frank frankly]

9. exactly

here we are at Vietnam II and once again, Dubya is AWOL

[ShaneGR]

11. I don't think so......

The press will have him for breakfast this time around.

[not_in_my_name]

12. The press will have him for breakfast?

The press doesn't eat breakfast, or lunch, or dinner - I think they've taken to slurping up babyfood.

[DoYouEverWonder]

14. Not until he debates

the Democrat candidate for president. In other words, probably not in our lifetime.

[Skittles]

15. Dear God, FRANK

HELL F***ING NO. HE would be torn to shreds by even SOFTBALL QUESTIONS. No way will his handlers allow him to EVER have another press conference.

[frank frankly]

16. so he just won't have any more

and will get away with it?

Does the media not have a breaking point? No, I guess not.

[Skittles]

17. GET AWAY WITH IT

WHEN HAS HE REALLY, TRULY BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR *ANYTHING*??? I'd say the media is still bending over, but they are no longer offering him the vaseline.

[frank frankly]

18. that's why I want another Press Conference

nothing left but tough questions for President Stoopid.

[Skittles]

19. and that is EXACTLY why

we won't get one. :O

[snippy]

20. Bush is not allowed to hold press conferences.

Why is that?

[Hubert Flottz]

21. Not a real one!

He's into photo ops! Things that one can dress a dummy up to pull off!

[snippy]

22. Bush does like to play dress up.

[frank frankly]

23. next question:

"Will Bush just quit one day?"

he is a lazy asshole, after all!

[Wapsie B]

24. What I'd love to see

is to have him in an unscripted press conference. That is, no list of questions to reporters beforehand. No calling on just the lapdogs in the press. Give Helen Thomas free reign.

But alas, that will not happen. They're gonna hide the chimp till election time. Only tightly scripted and rehearsed appearances will be allowed.
