Politico Reporter To Bush: "Is the current debate grounds for divorce?"
What is the problem that people have with DEBATE in this country? From Bush's press conference today, this guy Michael from Politico.com asks Bush if the current debate is grounds for him to divorce the Democrats!


Michael. Michael, who do you work for? (Laughter.)

Q Mr. President, I work for Politico.com.

THE PRESIDENT: Pardon me? Politico.com?

Q Yes, sir. Today. (Laughter.)

THE PRESIDENT: You want a moment to explain to the American people exactly what -- (laughter.)

Q Mr. President, thank you for the question. (Laughter.)

THE PRESIDENT: Quit being so evasive.

Q You should read it.

THE PRESIDENT: Is it good? You like it?

Q David Gregory --

THE PRESIDENT: David Gregory likes it. I can see the making of a testimonial. (Laughter.) Anyway, go ahead, please.

Q Thank you, Mr. President. You spoke hopefully about your ability to work with Democrats, their willingness to work with you in this new world. I wonder how that's going so far, what you've learned about how they think, and does the current debate constitute grounds for divorce?

1. Ugh. I just had a flashback of Jeff Gannon
"the Democrats seem divorced from reality"

Anyone remember that? :eyes:

4. Yes, remember it well, and you're exactly right.
These are the type of people who are allowed to 'question' (read: pimp for) the 'President' of the United States.

Amazing.

10. Precisely. They're not very original at all. But I guess that's to be expected when
you get your talking points from Karl Rove and the RNC. It really seems to me that many of the Republicans of today are just intellectually lazy. They aren't curious about much of anything. They don't seek out information that would help educate them. It's really sad to see.

Mike Allen is an idiot.

3. BIG time! I can't stand that guy!
He's obviously enthralled with RatBastard -- like someone above posted, reminds me of Jeff Gannon.

:puke:

7. But, but it can't be a marriage unless it's between one man and one woman.
