Thursday, March 13, 2003 Further Discussion of the Fake Press Conference Kuro5hin.com includes this lengthy followup discussion to the President's staged media circus last Thursday, in which Ari Fleischer admits that the order of questions was set in advance and that he made the "recommendations" as to which reporters should be called on. All of which begs the questions of how a President who has boasted to the world that he will not back down or be intimidated by Saddam Hussein can be so scared of having to answer a few spontaneous questions from his own domestic press corps. 8:04:31 AM    Emphasize This! [] © Copyright 2006 Rob Salkowitz.
