'Presidential' press conference today.
On the heels of yesterday's Washington Post editorial (and a reporter bellowing 'What about the news conference??' at the end of yesterday's 'availability' with Ariel Sharon yesterday), the White House has deigned to hold a press conference this morning.
Let's hope the press corps is awake enough to actually ask some questions. More on this later.

My all-time favorite egregiously pandering press conference question was posed by a female African-American reporter at the start of OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM (fanfare, please): "Mr. President, how does your faith in God sustain you during these difficult times?"
Or words to that effect. That is a true classic, one to teach your grandchildren as they bounce on your knee.

There's a good rundown of Bush's press conference over on a blog I just found, The Blog From Another Dimension.
