During tomorrow nights press conference will the reporters be real or
will they be more actors hired by Bush & Co?

1. they'll be real reporters...
they just won't ask any hard questions. They'll roll over and play dead, just like they did when that moron marched this country off to war.
Then they'll hold dinners and get all dressed up in their best whore finery, and tell themselves what a great job they do.

2. If they ask tough questions, they'll be Helen Thomas'ed.

4. If they all ask tough questions, they can't be Helen Thomas'ed!
It would be so cool if they all agreed to go head-up against Bush* at once. There might be the Washington Times or something left, but it would look very, very suspicious at this point.

8. The time is right for them to
go for it if they ever want to redeem themselves. Last press conference the questions had to submitted first so he could approve them and prepare the answers (well have Rove tell him what to say). If they all just go off script what could the White House do? It would be way too obvious for them all to be banned or be fired. Not too hopeful that this would ever happen but it should.

11. If they don't do that kind of thing now...
...they might "not get to" for a very very very very long time.

5. You know the media even gets embarrassed over this idiot's responses
They will try to make him look good. It's just too much for people to bear to admit that they elected a dolt for their leader.

6. It's not really necessary
for them to hire actors, when the real ones do such a good job. Remember the "press conference" on the eve of war, in which the good puppy press eagerly pretended to be jostling for *'s attention? The give away was when Dumbya himself actually blurted out that that the whole thing was scripted. He actually SAID THAT. DURING the press conference.

9. Perhaps if they hired actors
Candace Bergen could reprise her role of "Murphy Brown". I sometimes fantasize about what Murphy would do to Bush*
