Check out question from Jeff Gannon to bush* yesterday....
Jeff Gannon of Talon News...You think this guy might be on the payroll?????????

Question to President at News Conference Wed. "Thank you. Senate Democratic leaders have painted a very bleak picture of the U.S. economy. Harry Reid was talking about soup lines. And Hillary Clinton was talking about the economy being on the verge of collapse. Yet in the same breath they say that Social Security is rock solid and there's no crisis there. How are you going to work -- you've said you are going to reach out to these people -- how are you going to work with people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality?" www.mediamatters.org

I heard it live and wanted to throw my tv out of the third floor.

7. Talon News is Free Republic
Ask grasswire - she was blogging about it last year - it's totally fake.
