I can't believe we're watching the war live
Bush Watches Some of Baghdad Bombardment on TV
The White House came up with this after the Press Corps went literally crazy asking Ari Fleischer this question.
Apparently, those morons don't think the war is "real" for the Commander in Chief unless he sees it on CNN!
However, the TV coverage also explains why I haven't been blogging much...
watching this war happen "live" has had me mesmerized--I admit it.
It's "reality TV" to the max.
And with those reporters being imbedded with the troops, their reports really are the news of the war.
If you can filter out the Liberal cr*p (which is definitely the case with Fox News), it's almost "pure" news, for a change!
[I happened to flip over to MSNBC and caught Bush-hater Bryan Williams comparing our "Shock and Awe" bombing of Baghdad to the fire-bombing of Dresden during WWII.
Happily, somebody in the Pentagon caught this,too, because Rummy had some choice words for Bryan (even though he didn't mention him by name, "you know who you are") about such remarks at his daily press conference this afternoon! Rummy is so great!]
