Cheney lurks in shrubs at Bush press conference



I have a weak stomach so I don't usually watch Bush press conferences, but I did last week. And watched an extraordinary Bush administration visual: Cheney lurking in the shrubs during the conference and then slinking into the White House after it ended.

It brought back memories of the wire under Bush's jacket in the first debate with Kerry. Only this time Cheney decided to make a personal appearance and work the puppet strings himself. Or maybe he was just there to step in if Bush needed backup.

I think we could agree on many criticisms of the failures of the corporate media and what they don't cover, but the purge scandal isn't one of them.
They certainly don't ask the right questions and if the politicians don't keep up the pressure on Alberto Gonzales the corporate media will drop the story like a hot potato.
