Stand back - dangerously hard-hitting journalistic inquiries ahead:Couric: "In some way, does this hopefully in your view placate critics of the war on Capitol
Hill?"Bush: "You know I don't know, Katie, it's a good question. I would certainly hope so. In other words, if we're able to redeploy at some point time, I would hope so."
Where does one begin to dig into Ms. Couric's question?
She asks her question from within the perspective of Bush, rather than from the perspective of those attempting some accounting of a horribly mistaken war. As such she acts less like a 'tribune of the people', and more like an apologist for power. This is not journalism. This is not news. Bad puppy - no treat!
