Lapdog White House Press Corps(e) Plays Dead Again!

WH Briefing, 91/2//05: Another Day, Another Charade!

It was business as usual: another staged press briefing featuring favored lapdogs in the WH Press Corps panting to ask their vetted questions. The embarrassing giveaway this time was someone named Bianca. As reporters’ hands were raised as if to get the attention of the President, he called on Bianca to pose her planted query. But Bianca wasn’t there; she hadn’t shown up for her performance. Dang.

A bit later into the farce, a female reporter rose to ask a question. “Are you Bianca?” asked the President. No luck again, - Bianca and her obviously crucial question were still missing. Sadly, we’ll never know what Bush/PNAC policy the elusive Bianca had been preened to promote today. Dang, again.

President Bush held the briefing at the Pentagon to keep the nation up to date on his great successes in the global war on terrorism, otherwise known as the unending wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Generals George Casey and John Abizaid played intro to the main attraction, and long absent Veep Cheney, aneurism and all, stood solemnly in the background. Hmm, there must be an anti-war protest coming soon.

And wouldn’t you know, it was time to pull the 9/11 - terror - terrorist connections out of mothballs again. The President’s redundant speech was filled with the same old lies that withdrawing American forces from Iraq would make the world more dangerous and would allow terrorists “to claim an historic victory over the United States.” Making the same old references to past terrorist attacks around the world, he concluded that “The only way the terrorists can win is if we lose our nerve and abandon the mission.” Yawn.
