Angry White House pulls RTE interview


THE White House has lodged a complaint with the Irish Embassy in Washington over RTE journalist Carole Coleman's interview with US President George Bush.

And it is believed the President's staff have now withdrawn from an exclusive interview which was to have been given to RTE this morning by First Lady Laura Bush.

It is understood that both RTE and the Department of Foreign Affairs were aware of the exclusive arrangement, scheduled for 11am today. However, when RTE put Ms Coleman's name forward as interviewer, they were told Mrs Bush would no longer be available.

The Irish Independent learned last night that the White House told Ms Coleman that she interrupted the president unnecessarily and was disrespectful. She also received a call from the White House in which she was admonished for her tone.

[calimary]

45. YES! Thanks for this.

[HEyHEY]

56. What? Does Bush think he's the Fucking Dalai Lama now?

[Sweetpea]

2. Spoiled brat

[opihimoimoi]

7. If anyone should be filing complaints, it should be the reporter

He said: "Let me finish!"586976079774101893.08 Times during the interview, shown on the DU via links.

He was the rude person who evaded questions and avoided answering in full. Bush is the rudest person on Earth.

He would die selling ice cream in Summer on I 10 near Las Vegas.

[Kipepeo]

66. Link to the interview he's crying about?

I didn't see it and now I'm so curious!

[Mnemosyne]

3. Grow up shrub!

:cry: :cry: :cry:

[skooooo]

4. WTF? Complain to the embassy??!!

This is ridiculous. What do they expect the embassy to do about it? Did the reporter break any laws? violate terms of stay?

I hope this gets out.

[in_cog_ni_to]

5. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

:cry::cry::cry::cry::This is so damn embarrassing. And you know what? I am sick and tired of being embarrassed by this man! Every time he opens his damn mouth, he embarrasses our country. :nuke: I'm sure the Irish are laughing their asses off about that complaint.

[SoDesuKa]

6. Wonderful Story

Wonderful story, which I will use to taunt right wingers. But I need a link.

[Skip Intro]

8. Whiny little coward, just like his "followers"

Reminds me of one of the debates with Gore when Gore just flat-out asked the moron how he'd protect Social Securtiy (I believe that was the issue) and instead of answering, bush contorted his face like kid about to launch a tantrum, and asked the moderator to move on to the next question.

What disgusting little brat.

[I Lean Left]

24. I remember that!

Complained that Gore wasn't sticking to the format. Gore should have gone for blood at that point. He should have pointed out that it was too important an issue to hide from. Instead he sighed.

Damn.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

9. Somebody call him a "Waahmbulance!"

:cry:

[lpbk2713]

10. What a whiney candy-ass!!

See how badly he has been spoiled by the DC Press Corps Choir!!

This just gave the rest of the world another reason to laugh at this asshole, as if they needed another reason.

[otohara]

47. He Hated Her Questions

and was not about to be respectful to her. The only one being a total ass was too-stupid-to-be-president.

[yardwork]

64. I loved her questions. She even tried to reason with him.

"I don't know if you can understand this," she said. LOL!

Also, he mangled another biblical quote. I got this from the transcript at the WH site:

Bush: Because one of the great admonitions in the Good Book is, don't try to take a speck out of your eye if I've got a log in my own.

What.

[SoCalDem]

14. Dear Irelandish Leader,

Please consider punishing that mean Irelander lady..you know.. the redheadded on who was so hard on our poor president. She asked him hard questions, and it made him upset.. When he gets upset, he takes it out on all of us..

We thought you understood that he likes his questions simple.. A few samples: (in case he ever comes back to Shamrockland)

"President Bush, could you tell us again, how much you love Jesus?"
"President Bush, could you tell us again, how much you like steak?"
"President Bush, could you tell us where you got that fabulous tie?"

questions like that are acceptable.

And while you are at it, we do not appreciate the "naughty" pictures your camera person took of him.. He meant to bring his good undies, but Laura forgot to pack them.

[Tight_rope]

25. LMBAO!

[AussieInCA]

15. maybe they can add her and Ireland to the axis of evil

or put her in the wild eyed democrats Hitler ad.


Man, what a joke..the guy is an embarrasment...poor little reporter picking on me.

waaaaaaa


send him a waaaambulance someone

[0007]

46. The Irish are torturing junior - now turn the red ants loose.

This is excruciating in the funniest way, 'eh?

[calimary]

48. Or they'll declare her a WMD and launch a military assault.

[merh]

16. Who TF is giving him advice?

I mean everything they are doing just intensifies the impact of that person they complain about. MMoore will make millions and his movie will be seen by hordes because of their attempts to discredit and ban, this news reporter will be the most famous journalist in Ireland and she can write her own ticket.

What idiots. Keep it up, we love ya (NOT)!

Wonder if insiders are working from within to drive him mad.

[smirkymonkey]

17. What a little Candy Ass!

The bottom line is that this administration is absolutely JUVENILE!! A fine reporter actually does her job, unlike the media whores over here, and Monkey Boy throws a hissy fit. I hope the Europeans give him a battering he'll never forget.

Does anyone have a transcript or a link to the actual interview? Thanks.

[GiovanniC]

19. I Saw it on MSNBC Yesterday

I remember saying to the girl I'm dating, "Where can we get one of them -- what to you call them? -- oh, yeah... JOURNALISTS. It wouldn't be bad to have a couple of them."

[calimary]

18. Got a link?

This PROVES what Joseph Wilson was saying about how journalist friends of his said they'd be threatened, or their editors or producers would get threatening calls from the White House, if they reported ANYTHING even remotely critical of bush.

I need a link if you've got one. THIS IS GREAT!

[Mandate My Ass]

20. what a thin-skinned, petulant, whiny

narcissistic little putz. :puke:

That reporter was great, she gave it right back to
him and I hope she wears this "complaint" as a badge
of honor.

[psychopomp]

21. Haven't found the story yet

...anybody have the link?

[onethatcares]

42. the link is dead in the land of a "free press"

these mutherfukkers won't let anything stand that looks bad for dumbya. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO OUR COUNTRY???? is greed the only thing that runs it now?

[psychopomp]

65. His Imperial Sissypants

Reminds me of what he told a reporter last week, "Hold on a second, I'll get you in a minute, please. A little patience in front of the President here."

He can't take any heat! Get this milquetoast out of the White House!

[Tight_rope]

22. WTF!....I can't believe they filed a complaint!

I'm so fucking tired of the Bushch administration that live a glass houses but they keep throwing stones. Damn they are worse then a couple of 5 year olds who get into a fight out on the school yard during break time.:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

[Joe Fields]

23. That doesn't surprise me.

The interview was one of the things that I touched on in my blog The Bird today. Hit link to find out more.

26. Protesting a free press to a foreign government? Will he invade Ireland?

Oops forgot, Ireland has no oil.

27. Link, please, if you have one.

Thanks! This is GREAT!

28. The Scumm Of The Earth

Cant handle questions of Truth & reality! F**K you GW Bush, you are an embarrassment to America!

[Disturbed]

30. I heard the interview.

She would ask a question and he would launch into a campaign mini speech. She would ask a question in the middle of the speech then he would say, "Let me finish." a few times. His answers are those of a 5 yr. old with low IQ. That's his Bush Cult level.

[CityZen-X]

36. Is This A bully-Pulpit?

Bu$h*t is a prime example of a spoiled rich kid that can't handle the pressure of an educated platform. F*** you that can't handle the truth! Approved by (Dick Head Ceney) as conducted in the Senate Chambers!

[Geo55]

39. Yep......canned phrases,

can't walk an' chew gum at the same time.
Our wonderful wind-up doll pResident.

[CityZen-X]

41. How Long Can We Keep Sanity!?

In my opinion it is time for a revolution! Keep yourselves well armed because it is all so vivid that these corporate criminals (Bu$h**tco) will do everything in their power to keep their cash flow on hand.
I advocate resolution, as in taking our country back by physical graffiti!

[Blue-Jay]

33. Jeez, what a petulant little brat he is.

Gets asked some semi-tough questions for once and throws a tantrum about it.

What a cock.

[59millionmorons]

35. Imagine

Imagine if our media would have asked tough questions.

[Blue-Jay]

38. They never do, the cowards.

They know on which side their bread is buttered. She just asked him the same sort of stuff that WE'VE been wanting someone to ask for a long time. What did she get in return? "Saddam, terra, rape-room, terra, Saddam, 9/11, git 'em before they git us, terra, blahblahblah."

[calimary]

50. Hot diggity dog, what a spectacular mother barbara bush turned out to be.

Just LOOK at that fine boy she raised! What a good job she did! She - and her "beautiful mind."

[KoKo]

37. He wants the reporter FIRED! He can do this in the US so Why not in the

World! Fire her, Fire Her....Off with her Head he screams in his chimp voice....(oops..he thinks...better not scream "off with her head"...I forgot).

:grr: disgusting piece of trash.

[smirkymonkey]

68. Fire her!??

She'll probably be the next Taoiseach! Move over Bertie - Ireland needs a leader who doesn't suck Bush's dong!

[TrustingDog]

40. lol! The reporter is the one who has a valid complaint...

that plickbush practically lunged at her with his teeth bared for chrissakes.

Every fucking day he does or says something stupider than the fucking day before. Unbelievable.

[stickdog]

43. Maybe all Dean & Kerry need to file complaints against Russert?

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Mommy make the bad journalist stop! She's demanding answers!

[moondust]

44. That will not offset the complaints of thousands

in the streets. Get over it, Scrubya.

[spanone]

49. Good, it shows what petty pricks they are. He's an asshole.

[jeff30997]

51. The poor little baby!!!

I guess Carole Coleman is on his blacklist now! Next thing you know,they're gonna print a new deck of cards with journalists on them instead of Saddam and his pals! And Carole will be the ace of spades.

[glarius]

52. Bush wouldn't let HER finish her questions & did most of the interupting!

The clips I saw on TV was mostly him interrupting her and telling her to let him finish before she had finished her questions!

[TahitiNut]

63. Yes, he did. He was rude, condescending, arrogant, ...

... and did nearly ALL of the interrupting. The reporter asked questions when he'd acheived punctuation and paused -- but DimWit was at his patronizing worst -- and when he totally whiffed on the question.

[ibegurpard]

53. See this thread for contact info for Irish Embassy in Washington

It certainly couldn't hurt for them to get another point of view.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x1867033

[SW FL Dem]

54. You have to be kidding. I saw parts of the interview

the only one out of line was Bush who was belligerent and refused to answer the questions. When he asked the reporter a question he all but told her to shut up before she started to answer him.

[Beetwasher]

55. OH! This Is KILLING Me!! LOLOLOL!!

I've never heard of anything more pathetic! What a whiny little turd.

[snippy]

57. Has Cheney called Bush a vindictive little fuck yet? He should. n/t

[Francine Frensky]

58. Everybody should watch this one; bush just loses it

I think the question that really had him rattled was the one about how terror has increased since the Iraq war, how there is a bombing every day.

That really got to him, and he got all flushed in the face and fell back on the line about how Saddam was a bad guy, and then said "torture rooms" , which was kind of eery since he had just said it was no big deal about the US torture rooms.

[Cha]

62. What an imcompetant buffoon...

And it's all up there on the big screen in F9/11!

Moore will have to make a sequel..I hope he gets footage of the Irish reporter and the bush-meltdown.

[gratuitous]

60. Complained to the embassy?

Has anyone explained that whole "indepedent press" concept to the Chimp King? In all fairness, he doesn't have to deal with any such thing on this side of the pond, but leave it to an Irish woman to completely discombobulate Stupidhead!

Why don't you go fuck yourself, George?

[Cha]

61. There was a shot of Junior in F9/11

saying the same damn thing..."Let me finish, ok"?

[kaitykaity]

67. I guess the WH is used to the fellators of the American media.

Gawd, what whiney babies.

So much for Bush being the Big Man. Big men know how
to handle little women reporters.

Bwahahahahahahahaha.

[Kipepeo]

69. Irish TV Crew catches Bush changing clothes

http://abcnews.go.com/wire/Politics/ap20040626_899.html

But here's what really makes me laugh. The sub headline is:

"President Has Trouble Figuring Out What Day It Is"

It goes on to talk about the cancelled interview with laura as well.

[Kool Kitty]

70. You know, it is impossible to embarrass this administration

and the little Emperor. You can't make this shit up. What a fuckin' crybaby. :nopity: :cry: :nopity: :cry: :nopity: :cry:

[QC]

72. True--only those with some sense of shame can be embarrassed. n/t

[Forkboy]

73. Can anyone imagine living thier lives so insecure?

What a knob-end.

[NightOwwl]

74. Hey Bush...

Go FUCK Yourself!

I'm not laughing. I am so pissed off. She asked the kinds of questions our journalists are supposed to be asking. This interview made it very apparent how canned and fake his responses have been. He had a his talking points script and when she tried to rip it away from him he fucking lost it. Arrogant, patronizing bastard. And now he's trying to get her fired? I hate him now more than I ever have. Fuck him, fuck them all. I can almost sympathize with our media. Almost.

[gardenista]

75. This is gonna backfire on that smarmy son-of-a-rhymes with witch

This will be all over the international press. Our own media will be exposed for the lazy whimps they've been. Maybe they'll start growing a spine. It could happen.

[Kipepeo]

76. kicking

to see if anyone has a link to the original interview that he's so pissed about

[NightOwwl]
