President Bush Meets the Press

During his Rose Garden press conference, I kept thinking it's unfortunate that meetings like this are not seen by many Americans. President Bush is very capable of clearly communicating his message. He's understandable and direct.

He was very direct in his condemnation of Amnesty International's report that referred to the facility at Guantanamo Bay as the "gulag of our time."

The President said, "It's absurd. It's an absurd allegation. The United States is a country that promotes freedom around the world."

The allegations of abuse are made by "people who hate America," according to the President.

No kidding. I do not understand why Amnesty International buys the stories of former detainees. Why would they trust their accounts as credible?

The organization's agenda is obvious.
