Bush attacks mainstream media!
In his press conference he talked about news writing about the "march toward war" for about 8 months while the WH was debating when to blow up Saddam. He said that it scared people and that made them want to invest.

"Why are you guys writing about what my administration is doing damnit? It's scaring the people! I wanna have my cake and eat it too!"

1. Gee George you know that "free press" is a bitch
you know this would be alot easier if it was a dictatorship. But, you and the supreme court, congress, Rush and the Carlyle Group are working on that.

2. He sure was quiet as a mouse about it
when it was actually happening. He could have just said, "Hey fellas, quit sucking my d*ck and shut up about the war already - you're killin' my portfolio".

And that would have been that, in a fair and balanced second.

4. Scaring the people? or the Bush Crime Family?
fed2dneck to Bush: if you don't like a free press, resign and march your ass to Saudi Arabia--you have a lot of rich friends who'll give you asylum, including Osama bin Laden!

:evilgrin:
