Bush believes in the free press, like kids believe in Santa.
(from the AP)
CAMBRIDGE, Md. (AP) — The eavesdropping tables were turned on President Bush on Friday. The president apparently believed he was speaking privately when he talked about listening in without a warrant on domestic communications with suspected al-Qaida terrorists overseas. But reporters were the ones doing the listening in this time.
The incident happened at a House Republican retreat. After six minutes of public remarks by the president, reporters were ushered out. “I support the free press, let’s just get them out of the room,” Bush said, intending to speak behind closed doors with fellow Republicans and take lawmakers’ questions.
How the heck this ended up in the “Oddly Enough” section of NY Daily News is quite suspicious to me.
