Freedom of the Pressssssident...forget it...

So the President threw a BBQ for members of the press. Sounds like a good time...almost, except that you won't hear anything about it because, as Julie Mason of the Houston Chronicle, who was in attendance pointed out, "Nothing the president said could be quoted, but it's rare that reporters get uninterrupted access to him for 90 minutes, particularly when beer is served. Bush, who gave up drinking years ago, drank a non-alcoholic Buckler." So I guess you're a reporter until someone gives you free beer...makes sense to me.

Have you heard of the new hit show on IraqiTV, "Materials and Labor"? It's Extreme House Makeover Baghdad Style...yes, lucky Iraqis get their bomb damaged houses rebuilt for them...Smile into the camera folks, it's only a smart bomb...

and I think to myself...what a wonderful world:)
