Actually I don't have a problem with a president giving an interview on foreign news networks.
I do have a problem with it being his FIRST TV interview, and with the things he said in this context. I don't remember Bush giving such interviews but I would not be surprised if he did. BTW if the MSM did have transcripts, you'd find them saying very similar things, except for the parts about America being the bad guy, and Barry relating in a deeply personal way to Muslims. - Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Wolfe, Stephen S Civ USAF AMC 6 MDSS/SGSI > Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2009 10:33 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [OT] I don' t remember this? > > "During his presidency, former President George W.
