- After taking Bush stenography for more than 2 years,
White House reporters may be finally awakening from their collective coma.
-
- This week's most important story is Bush's efforts to
buy a majority of votes on the U.N. Security Council. But when reporters
pressed Ari about the terms of these deals, Ari feigned pure unadulterated
outrage.
-
- "I haven't seen the story. And you already have
the answer, about what this will be decided on. But think about the implications
of what you're saying. You're saying that the leaders of other nations
are buyable. And that is not an acceptable proposition."
-
- Suddenly, a remarkable thing happened - the reporters
LAUGHED. They laughed LOUD. And they laughed so loud that Ari turned on
his heels and marched right off the stage.
-
- Will this be reported? Will reporters follow up on Bush's
global vote-buying effort? Will this be the LIE that broke the camel's
back? Stay tuned!
