The members of the press who are complaining about not being in the West Wing while it undergoes a renovation, are serious whiners.

Milbank uses phrases like:

>>>banished from the WH

>>>to deepen the isolation

then he says:

Bush has traveled out of the Washington area at least seven times this year without a press plane, including four times in the past month to fundraisers closed to the press. This development, devised by a secretive White House and enabled by cash-strapped media outlets, has helped Bush to stage a series of father-protector photo ops with few of those pesky questions that reporters tend to ask.

I'd ask of Milbank:
At least 7 times, eh? Do you think Bush was trying to save the taxpayers money, or who pays for a press plane?

Have fundraisers EVER been open to the press....All fundraisers, Dem and Repub...

"Cash strapped media outlets".............HEhEheheH
I suppose that is Bush's fault to.... Could that just be the fault of the particular Media Outlet?????

"Father-protector" photos ops... DOESN'T THAT SAY IT ALL????
