Are the reporters afraid of bush!

[butterfly77]

Only a few stand up to this arrogant -------. They need to stick together when he does that fake joking and laughing to get them off point. He gives the same answers everytime they ask, or anyone. Ask about how some can pay for their education he says we give more pell grants and talks about No child left behind and jumps to something else non-related and gets really LOUD. These reporters need to follow up with the same questions like they do on Scotty. By the way what was wrong with bushs' mouth were the drugs kicking in when he started winding up his lips?

1. I dare the reporters to ask this question:

"What is your relationship with the group called Project for a New American Century, and why is it that your policies here and abroad match perfectly with their agenda, including using a terrorist attack on the United States to prompt a pre-emptive war in the middle east?"

I fucking dare Helen or someone else to ask this question. I fucking double dog dare them.

[blm]

2. I fuckin agree - it's a great fuckin question.

5. Fuckin' A.

6. It's the Project for a New American Century.

But that's minor details. Bush's name isn't on anything, and he would just say he doesn't know anything about it.

Better to ask him if he is aware that a number of his staff were directly involved in it.

11. Fixed. Plus, if he denies knowledge, you have this DEADLY followup:

"Followup question, sir: If you know nothing about this radical extremist organization, then how is it that Dick Cheney, the VP, Paul Wolfowitz, and other members of your administration are the people responsible for founding this group, and how is it that your domestic and foriegn policy EXACTLY MATCHES the agenda of this terrorist group?"

He is dead meat.

15. That's the killer question.

I wonder what would be coming through the wire at him then. :)

[ThomasNewton]

16. You ought to send these questions to every media outlet n/t

[Quakerfriend]

7. Ecellent question! Do you think he would try to say he's never

heard of PNAC??

[dflprincess]

9. Bush doesn't allow Helen to ask him questions

He's afraid of her. He'll only call on reporters he knows are going to throw him softballs. It would be nice if one of them grew a spine and surprised him with a real question.

[butterfly77]

17. That's why he cuts off reporters and ...

says "let me finish" Or he says " excuse me I'm not finish" then he follows that with a corny non-joke or precedes to tell the reporters what they are thinking.

[donkeyotay]

14. It's just a coincidence that all these people were in place before 9-11,

just happenstance that PNAC was the bush administration. Just like it was a coincidence that they got their Perle Harbor or that all those people opposed to war committed suicide, had their plane crash or careers ruined, and only a conspiracy theorist would think God didn't have Bush elected to do his work here.

3. Could be that the news outlets are either with 'im or

they get the gummint breathing down their back causing their cost of business to go up dramatically.

edit: spelling correction

[rocktivity]

4. Yes--they live in fear of receiving an envelope

containing either white powder or a pink slip.

8. Reporters are only afraid of each other

Look how quickly Noron jumped on Helen, suggesting that the very question made the press lose credibility.

The only daggers they fear are the ones their colleagues might throw trying to make them look ridiculous.

[elfin]

10. Not exactly - they are afraid of their corporate bosses

who love Bush's favoritsm of mega mergers in the communications industry.

Plus, they are lazy.

[Ufomammut]

12. Exactly. It's called "cover your ass"

Follow orders and move up the ladder. "Reporters" only "report" what their editors allow, who base that upon how well it serves the Establishment's interests.

13. I couldn't believe it when someone asked about the NSA

and shrub re-framed NSA to the 'terrorist spying act' and started saying that
he is waiting for Dems to come out against that,
that NOT one reporter followed up with a question on why he
wasn't following the laws of FISA???
Why didn't anyone turn it back around???
