Strange MSNBC version of the press conference.

[killbotfactory]

MSNBC version of the Helen Thomas part of the Bush news conference:

Part of that meant to make sure that we didn't allow people to provide safe haven to an enemy, and that's why I went into Iraq.

(Crosstalk)

President Bush: Hold on for a second. Excuse me for a second, please. Excuse me for a second. They did. The Taliban provided safe haven for Al Qaida.

That's where Al Qaida trained and that's where...

Question: (Off-mike)

President Bush: Helen, excuse me.

That's where -- Afghanistan provided safe haven for Al Qaida. That's where they trained, that's where they plotted, that's where they planned the attacks that killed thousands of innocent Americans.

Non MSNBC version:

Part of that meant to make sure that we didn’t allow people to provide safe haven to an enemy. And that’s why I went into Iraq — hold on for a second —

Q They didn’t do anything to you, or to our country.

THE PRESIDENT: Look — excuse me for a second, please. Excuse me for a second. They did. The Taliban provided safe haven for al Qaeda. That’s where al Qaeda trained —

Q I’m talking about Iraq —

THE PRESIDENT: Helen, excuse me. That’s where — Afghanistan provided safe haven for al Qaeda. That’s where they trained. That’s where they plotted. That’s where they planned the attacks that killed thousands of innocent Americans.

1. extraordinary, inexplicable dedication to the puffball prezzie

even if the bushviks have the mediawhore masters by the balls, and thus force a soft and easy approach to the crooks, such evidence as you've posted here says that way down the line there are hard core busheviks working in the media - guys who jump to attention when bush comes up, and bend over all the way to please the bushies! it boggles the mind that the enemy is so deeply entrenched in the infotainment woodwork, and so crafty in their service of bush and the enemy!

2. When will someone follow up with the hijackers training HERE?

Did America provide "safe haven" for the 9/11 hijackers that were dispensed by Al Qaeda?
