The "Terrorists" Have Won. A Little.

Bush doesn't like the Press very much. They rough up his press secretary. They write unflattering stories about his Administration. Goddammit, they stand against everything that makes America great.

The Press are the enemy. Terrorists. And they've won. For now.

Members of the mainstream media and bloggers alike, for days, have been calling for the firing of Michael Brown, the ill-prepared, untrained, inexperienced director of FEMA. The White House's version of "negotiating" (with the terrorists) was pulling Brown back to Washington to do . . . well, something. Meanwhile, his job is being turned over to someone else. And Chertoff is answering for him at press conferences.

Look, the guy who groped Jenna Bush has as much experience as Brown in crisis-management; he dated Jenna, afterall.

The president claims that he doesn't listen to polls, and doesn't run the country based on public opinion. But the country found out about his blatant cronyism. And he has to answer for it. Along with everthing else.
