Hold on a minute. According to Howard, it is the president's fault that, aside from the comment about the stupid cop, the press conference wasn't newsworthy? To me, it is the fault of the reporters for not asking newsworthy questions. You have an hour of prime time with the leader of the free world and you toss him softballs? Frankly, I preferred the circumstances in Iraq where the president might at least get tossed a shoe. -- Kevin M. (RPCV) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV ....
