Bush Blames Media For Hyping 'March To War' Before Iraq
Casting about for new events to blame for the sluggish performance of the economy so far in his administration, pResident George W. Bush Friday blamed news organizations for hyping the prospects of the war with Iraq.

During a brief interchange with reporters following a meeting with his cabinet, Bush was asked if he was surprised that three large tax cuts and 12 rate cuts by the Federal Reserve hadn't done more to get the economy on track.

"And then, as you may remember,... we had... a steady drumbeat to war. As I mentioned in my press conference the other day, on our TV screens there was... - on some TV screens there was a constant reminder of the American people - 'March to war.' Now war is not a very pleasant subject in people's minds. It's not conducive for the investment of capital," Bush said.
You finger-pointing coward. So now it's the MEDIA's fault. You mean like your asshole buddies at Fox News, you incredible imbecile????

However, beginning in August 2002 .... with two speeches by Dick Cheney, administration officials talked - and talked, and talked - about the possibility of going to war with Iraq. On every damn talk show, to every reporter, every chance they got.
