It Was Because Accuracy Was Important That is what Texas ranch owner and host, Katharine Armstrong, said when asked why she contacted the local paper with the news of the unfortunate hunting accident involving Vice President Cheney and Harry Whittington. (And btw, a prayer for Harry Whittington's quick recovery.)  It was because she felt that accuracy was important.  David Gregory and the other obnoxious White House 'correspondents'  need to realize that the news does not revolve around THEM.  Especially when accuracy is important.  Besides, I'm still waiting to hear any of them ask Scott McClellan what he thinks of Al Gore's comments in Saudi Arabia last week.  How silly they make themselves look.  3:56:25 PM    comment [] trackback []

Rice Uses The F Word On Iran - Freedom Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice uses the F word (Freedom) over Iran.   Just the kind of steadfastness in principle and purpose that is needed.  Any bets the self-proclaimed 'opposition party' will deride her for such an objective? Rice Wants $75M to Support Iran Democracy. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice wants Congress to give $75 million in an emergency spending bill to support democracy in Iran.

What the Hunting Accident Kerfuffle Is Really All About. Tony Blankley discusses an unexplored angle on the VP Cheney hunting accident. In the absence of any pressing news these days -- other than Iran's nuclear weapons development crisis, the election of Hamas terrorists in Palestine, ongoing worldwide Muslim riots and killing in reaction to a cartoon, Al Gore's near sedition while speaking in Saudi Arabia, the turning over of our East Coast ports to be managed by a United Arab Emirates firm, the criminal leaking of vital NSA secrets to the New York Times, Mexican military incursions across our southern border, the Iraqi crisis, Congress's refusal to deal with the developing financial collapse of Social Security and Medicare, inter alia -- the White House press corp has exploded in righteous fury over the question of the vice president's little shooting party last weekend. As I understand the profound concern of the ever-alert White House reporters, they smell a constitutional crisis because the shooting party failed to alert the media of the accidental shooting down in Corpus Christi, Texas. Well, actually, they did alert the Corpus Christi media -- but that didn't count. Unless the exalted ones have been formally informed by an official government press secretary, no public communication has technically occurred. For great commentary on the elitist groupthink that pervades the Washington press corps, read it all. [GOP Bloggers] 10:49:44 AM    comment [] trackback []
