W stands for weasel (or wuss, if you prefer)

So W (Weasel) may skip the debate that would involve taking questions from voters in a "town hall meeting" format. Atrios knows what THAT means:

So, Bush is scared to face questions by regular folks because some of them may come from "partisan" people. What does this tell us?

First, it reaffirms what we know - that his audiences and their questions are pre-screened.
Second, it reaffirms that Chicken George is indeed a chicken, frightened of the people he's supposed to govern.

And, finally, it tells us that Chicken George is scared the people will ask him tougher questions than the press corps will.


He's probably right about that.

1. i'll go with "weasel"....love that!

2. perhaps bushie is afraid to answer questions from "activist citizens" (aka people who don't agree w/him)

3. the only thing that truly scares this administration is to let the Boy King, speak off the cuff. It's risky...as he did w/Matt Lauer, saying we couldn't win the war on terrorism. Next day he flipped. (where have I heard that before? hmmm?)Momma Condi and Daddy Dick, don't like George to speak without serious sound bites ready.

4. Great blog! Keep it up. Can you turn on the "email this post" feature (under settings) so i can email your most excellent posts to the masses? Thanks! ;-)
