Bush invites his favorite yes-people to a private meeting.

President Bush invited ten talk hosts into the Oval Office for an hour of conversation today --Glenn Beck, Bill Bennett, Neal Boortz, Scott Hennon, Laura Ingraham, Lars Larson, Mark Levin, Michael Medved, Janet Parshall and me. This was an off-the-record conversation, and so I won't be quoting the president.

I will say on today's show that I am confident about the course of the war and about the momentum in Iraq, as well of the president's absolute commitment to doing right by the troops and his concern for every lost and wounded soldier and their families. President Bush's command of the details and his broad view of the conflict is reassuring, and among my comments to him was the wish that he found more opportunities to engage in long interviews that would allow the American public to see that grasp and that commitment.

He just isn't going to let his bubble break, is he?
"Yes Mr. President." "Things are going wonderfully in Iraq Mr. President" "History will see you as a savior Mr. President".
No wonder the guy has his head up his ass.

I love the quote over at C&L about this....

And Democratic presidential candidates are supposed to avoid YearlyKos? While Bush is inviting these far-right voices into the White House for a chat?

Great point. Why are Democrats getting shit on for attending YKos while Bush is inviting his favorite propaganda slingers in for a sitdown?

this is typical bush... i can't stand how his reprehensible behavior can be rationalized, but i can't wait to see how it's done

I wonder if this what talk would have sounded like during Vietnam if HH and others had been around?

He really should just have some Dick Cheney, Condy rice, General petreaus, etc, bobble head dolls and line them up on his desk.
Should we invade Iran? GREAT! we all agree. Mobilize the troops!
