Bush Press Conference - May 24, 2007 - Softball Questions - Incoherent Answers
Edited on Wed Mar-25-09 01:49 AM by Median Democrat
The questions are a lot less confrontational, and they say that Obama's answers are defensive. What would they call this sniveling performance by Bush?

Also, take your pick of Bush press conferences. Bush on his best day could not dream of being as good as Obama responding to some incoherent question by Fox or Ed Henry:

2. Shoot, I was reading the Marc Ambider's B/C Grade Of Obama's Press Conference
And I guess I just wanted to get an idea of what curve is Obama being graded against. I thought Obama did pretty good, but reading those CNN descriptions of Obama being defensive, isn't it great to get some perspective on what "being defensive" really means.

6. Oh NO the reporter's tie was loose!
Guarantee you when President Obama does his first Rose Garden presser, there will BE NO JACKET! And he MIGHT just roll up his sleeves!

(because that's what you do when you're working hard, you roll up your sleeves!) ;)



And thank you for this.

7. This is an exercise in futility. I choose to not re-live Bush press conferences.
Looking for a modicum of fairness or seeking to prove unfairness is a huge waste of time. Can you imagine if Obama sat around obsessing over how he's treated by the press vs. Bush?
