Still a tie the next morning. KOS has a certain sort of round up. Best line so far from him:

Two words for President Bush: anger management.

The Kommisar blogged the town hall and came up with another sort of view. His best line?

The nature of the human spirit is to harvest other humans for spare parts and repairs.

Both these bloggers have long ago already established where the good guys are so they are not really going to help much with drawing a conclusion but their observational take is great. That is why Pajamastan is like 17th century pamphleteers - bias is on the table. It is, of course, also the thing that makes is sometimes worthless as no one is trying to achieve objectivity, to establish facts.

Funny, though, as unlike the Kommisar all I saw was the woman in the back of one of the seating arrangements making really uncomfortable faces when Bush talked - no one warmed to him. She was over his left shoulder during his final talkette. Then at the end she was hovering to get a photo with him. Why do people fawn over politicians? Growning up in NS, John Buchanan came to the kitchen door at breakfast time during one campaign and mom closed the door on his face. During undergrad, the NDP had a little get together in our college bar and one little fellow traveller asked our table "would you like to meet Alexa Mcdonough". Lids were flipped when we said no, leave us alone to drink beer. Not rude but not on call. This is a democracy for God's sake.
