FINALLY ... SOMETHING TO CRITICIZE IN THE BUSH TRIP TO IRAQ
FINALLY ... SOMETHING TO CRITICIZE IN THE BUSH TRIP TO IRAQ
You must know that as soon as the word got out that George Bush had visited the troops in Iraq on Thanksgiving day, the left started looking at every nuance of that event in hopes of finding something to criticize: Some lie, some fraud, some breach of protocol or decency. Well, it looks like they found it. Do you remember that tray with the turkey that Bush picked up and held during that thanksgiving dinner? The Washington Post has, after what surely must have been an intensive investigation, discovered that that particular turkey was a decoration, not a turkey destined for consumption. We're told that a contractor roasted that turkey and adorned it with grapes and greenery as a decoration for the banquet table. The Post is now telling us that picking up a turkey that was not actually meant to be eaten has "opened new credibility questions for (the) White House. White House officials are now having to explain that Bush didn't actually know that this particular turkey was a decoration."
How desperate can you get? Bush picks up an ornamental turkey and the Washington Post seizes on this as an example of White House credibility problems? Good post DJV.
