Bush a security risk
This is really pretty funny.
Obviously, Bush is not that concerned about this stuff leaking, given his snark, "I know that's impossible in Washington." But, boy are we going to hot foot it after those poor bastards that leaked the NSA story to the Times.
Well, since when is hypocrasy new to this guy?
CAMBRIDGE, Md. The source of the latest leak from the Bush administration is: President Bush himself.
Thanks to an error by a White House technician, the sound of what were supposed to be private remarks to G-O-P House members was relayed to the White House press corps.
Bush made a brief public speech to lawmakers at their retreat on Maryland's Eastern Shore. He then shooed out reporters and photographers, saying, "I support the free press, let's just get 'em out of the room."
Once they were gone, Bush -- not realizing he was still audible -- said, "I expect this conversation we're about to have to stay in the room." He added, "I know that's impossible in Washington."
Bush then spoke for roughly two minutes on the war on terror and his warrantless eavesdropping program before the outside feed was switched off. On the surveillance, he repeated earlier assertions he'd cleared the program with top government lawyers.
Obviously, Bush is not that concerned about this stuff leaking, given his snark, "I know that's impossible in Washington." But, boy are we going to hot foot it after those poor bastards that leaked the NSA story to the Times.

Seems ironic that the only time Bush can speak with candor is when he doesn't know that his comments are being recorded. He doesn't have any idea what a real press conference is like because no one can trust him to handle questions on his own. I found this article amusing and depressing.
