MSNBC

Do you recall, during the last years of the Bush administration, when Deputy Press Secretary Dana Pernio said of MSNBC:

“We’re going to treat them the way we would treat an opponent. As they are undertaking a war against President Bush and the White House, we don’t need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave.”

Of course you remember! Unless you don't. And you shouldn't because the quote above is from Anita Dunn, White House communications director for the current administration.

Also, only a Commander in Chief that doesn't take actual war (Afghanistan, Iraq, anyone?) seriously would characterize the partisan jabs that are part of the normal political process as a fucking war.

Find me one example of the Bush administration calling anything other than war, a war.
