To see what the MSM had to say about Bush NOT expressing condolences
or addressing the 31 Marines killed today I checked in with the main cable news, MSNBC, CNN, FOX and to my surprise only FOX even seemed to be a little uspset by this. I'm sure that had it been BC or another Dem in office they would have lowered the boom. But the fact that, up to then, they were the only ones mentioning Bush's almost total disregard for the families of these dead soldiers caught my attention.

Has the rest of the MSM even mentioned it yet?

1. Fox was saying before his press conf. that he'd surely have some comments.
They must be disappointed. Or they were lied to.

2. Disappointed? Nah. They were upset that they were made to
look bad. Can you imagine Coulter, Hannity & Loopahman "feeling" bad?

4. They all did "mention" it. CBS covered it fairly well, the othe 2 poorly.

5. Imagine that otherwise oblivious Fox viewer who happened to
catch this report and Judy Bachrach's criticism of Bush's spending on lavish inaugural parties while troops don't have armor.

I always like to imagine that half-asleep Bush fan suddenly saying to themselves, "that Bush guy really is and asshole".
