This is not the 9/11 coverage Rove envisioned for his "boss". A Washington Post columnist has let loose, and has provided URL links to other unflattering MSM coverage of Dubya over the fourth anniversary weekend.

Amid a slew of stories this weekend about the embattled presidency and the blundering government response to the drowning of New Orleans, some journalists who are long-time observers of the White House are suddenly sharing scathing observations about President Bush that may be new to many of their readers.

Judging from the blistering analyses in Time, Newsweek, and elsewhere these past few days, it turns out that Bush is in fact fidgety, cold and snappish in private. He yells at those who dare give him bad news and is therefore not surprisingly surrounded by an echo chamber of terrified sycophants. ... He is uncomprehending of the speeches that he is given to read.
