In the Rose Garden, It Was All Al-Qaeda


By Dana Milbank

Is there no safe haven for President Bush?

It happened midway through his news conference in the Rose Garden yesterday
morning, in between his 10th and 11th mentions of al-Qaeda: A bird flew over
the president and deposited a wet, white dropping on the upper left sleeve
of his jacket. Bush wiped the mess off with his bare hand.


 

 

There was no evidence that Osama bin Laden was responsible for this
particular attack, and - who knows? -- maybe the terrorist leader believes
the superstition that bird poop is good luck. But just about everything else
that came up during the hour-long news conference was traced to bin Laden's
terrorist network.

The print edition ran a photo of President Bush with the caption: "The
President encountered dissent from the avian-American community."
