Of course not.

I think that’s what they (the reporters) hate about this “torture”, it reminds them of their high school days, gettin’ a wedgie, havin’ their lunch money taken, gettin’ their heads dunked in the toilet, bein’ stuffed into their lockers, it brings back very painful memories for them. THAT’S why they became reporters, so that they can make sure it doesn’t happen to anyone else, dammit!

Petulant school children.

If not out gunned, Snow definately has them out classed. And this far into my President’s continuing communications nightmare battling a hostile, adversarial press? I’ll take what I can get.

Context, people. Context. He said it was a no-brainer TO HIM, and then the very next thing out of his mouth was BUT. Doesn’t that suggest actual policy differs from what he personally thinks?

I caught that too, but that’s debatable. While I agree that could be an end all, I think it’s more important that we note that we are and should be waterboarding because we don’t consider it to be torture, however we don’t talk about it because it aides the terrorists, and because the “human rights” America haters will stop at nothing to undermine the President and the war effort.

For a most literal reply for such stunning lamebrains.

LOL!

(I’m assumimg you forgot the word “Adult” on purpose.)

The Oedipus Press Squeaks again.

I’m with Matticus, the room full of press corp laughter over the accidental shooting incident demonstrated just how hateful and biased these so-called “journalists” are.

…in the current overheated atmosphere of American democracy, the press is under three delusions:

* They either think that they have to be cool, or they think that they *are* cool, and

* They think that they have to be amusing, in no small part because the Daily Show sets their professional expectations, and finally

* They think that people actually believe them.

I cry silent, bitter tears for the self-deluded…once in a while…when I remember to….

Context, people. Context. He said it was a no-brainer TO HIM, and then the very next thing out of his mouth was BUT. Doesn’t that suggest actual policy differs from what he personally thinks?

I’d like to see Tony come before them tomorrow and announce that W. has resigned, Cheney is the new president, and watch the entire press room full of buffoons keel over from cardiac arrest.

Yet, when Tony calls them on it, they don’t object. Bias,
what media bias?

NICE CATCH MTDrake!

And M Finch, I completely agree.

The press corps laughs hysterically. Wow.

Sorry to be a prude, but that’s really unprofessional.

But here’s the issue. We waterboard. We waterboarded KSM and saved lives. It’s not torture, but American hating “human rights” groups consider it torture and would make a huge stink if we admitted to it. That, and that alone, is what this is about. The media is determined to get someone to admit that we waterboard so heading in to the elections they can scream “GEORGE BUSH AND THE REPUBLICANS ARE TORTURING!!!”

Again, this is about nothing else. By the way, did anyone catch Bill O’Reilly on Oprah? He actually discussed this briefly, and hit the nail on the head.

Hmm…. So Cheney doesn't back dunking people in water to get them to talk, something he told to North Dakota's own Scott Hennen? Here's what Cheney said to Hennen: HENNEN : I've had people call and say, 'Please, let the vice p…
