MSNBC has decided they don't have to give Bush free air time whenever
he wants it and goes on his daily little campaign speeches.

CNN and Faux are showing it.

MSNBC is doing regular news and was covering a press conference re the wrongful death suit from the little boy whose mom died when they ignored his 911 call.

Bush has been sucking up 1-2 hours almost daily for the past few weeks spewing his crap. I'm glad they no longer feel obligated to cover it.

What a difference bad poll numbers make. Thanks, MSNBC.

6. They might be cutting away to protect him.
Stammering, nervous snickering at inappropriate times, rambling like someone on the brink of insanity.

technique of changing the daily news.

3. It isn't quite summer yet
So networks shouldn't show reruns. And that's all bush's speeches and "press conferences" are. Just more of the same ol' stuff.

5. Good for MSNBC!
Although I don't like a good bit of their regular programming, their news coverage seems to be better than Faux and CNN. I'm glad they can say, "Enough!" to Bush's ramblings.

Best news show on the airwaves: MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann.
