AP Nails It--Itself, That Is

A 1400-word fairwell puff piece by Ben Feller, White House correspondent for The Associated Press, is quick to lay its cards on the table: judge Bush by his image, not his actions:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090103/ap_on_go_pr_wh/distinctly_bush_analysis

Bush's style and temperament are as much his legacy as his decisions. Policy shapes lives, but personality creates indelible memories - positive and negative.
Call it distinctly Bush.

No, call it distinctly AP, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, NYT, LAT, M$M. Call it a totally depraved media system that can't possibly tell the truth, except about sports scores and the weather.

The headline of the AP story? "Analysis: Bush's personality shapes his legacy"

The truth? "Media Sycophants Shape His Legacy, With Stories Just Like This"

him to TO ASK HIM TO commute THE PRISONER to life.. he told Gonzo to keep the last minute reviews to 2 pages, didn't want to be bothered. he actually said, when asked by a reporter about the possibilities of executing an innocent man..because he was about to execute an obviously Innocent man.. Bu$h replied, ~Justice has been done, god will take care of him...
