President Bush thinks she was being rude. What he doesn't get is that this is how Irish reporters treat all politicians. They ask direct questions, and if they politicians starts dodging the issue or speaking in platitudes, the reporters stop them and call them on their bullshit. Dear God I wish they did that here.
Incidentally, they told her before the interview that if this went well, Carol Coleman (the reporter) would get a lovely exclusive with Laure Bush about her dresses, and what types of shoes she wears. After they told her she could expect to never be allowed near White House personnel again. Carol of course wasn't the least disturbed by this, as what is the point of being a political reporter if you are afraid to ask the questions that matter.

IrishWhiskey - 2007-09-26 In a related matter, Katie Couric recently told the National Press Club that the war was a mistake, the President misled the country, that they bungled the planning and that she would be willing to say this on air "if required". She also claims to have known this from the beginning of the war but was afraid to say anything for fear of being labeled unpatriotic.
Spot the difference between the two types of reporters....

SolRo - 2007-09-26 She didn't realy stop him nor call him on his bullshit, she just interrupted his mini speeches and then let him get back to it when he asked to finish.

If he honestly believes HALF of what he's vomiting forth, he's crazier than we have previously assumed.

So that's what real journalism looks like. It's been so long I'd forgotten.
On an aside, I don't see what the White House is so up in arms about. That's the best I've seen Bush come across in years.

I reached for the close button every agonizing minute of this thing, just from the embarrassment of this jack ass representing us.
Also:
Bush: Nobody cares more about their deaths than I do. (pause)
Reporter: Ok, yadda yadda
Bush: Wait wait! Let me finish. Nobody cares more about their deaths than I do. (pause)

"I don't like death." In a tone that suggest 1) He thinks that is a really remarkable statement, and 2) He's not entirely telling the truth.

this clip is so old.
atleast I now know where the bush/busey got its audio from.
Sadam didnt disclose his arms? I guess this whole thing could have been avoided if he was wearing a wife beater.

I wish she'd called him on the obvious lie near the end, when she asked him about the deaths in Iraq and he basically insinuated that all the deaths were terrorist related.
I hope his personal relationship with God results in him putting a gun to his head.

If this had a laugh track or was an extended scene out of some kinda dystopian satire on tyrannical dellusion, it'd make perfect, perfect sense.

When he says "Irish-Americans", you know he means ginger Bostonians who celebrate "St. Paddy's". Still, fuck Bush harder than Americans who pretend to be Irish.
