Re: THE CONNECTION & THE MEDIA

From The Connection & The Media:

"When does the country finally start asking (a) why the media (and parts of the intelligence community) are so hell-bent on discrediting Bush that they won't report on patently meaningful ties b/w Saddam & bin Laden and (b) why isn't the Bush administration screaming to high heaven about this stuff?"

From me:

Well, (a), they won't because most of the country was already convinced of a Saddam/bin Laden tie early on anyway — although the same folks are now seeing it as less of a good reason to have started this war — and (b) maybe Bush thinks that 'screaming to high heaven about this stuff' might also prompt us to ask about bin Laden's ties with countries he has no interest in invading, like Saudi Arabia.
