Bush Teleconference With Soldiers Staged
sgt bob
By DEB RIECHMANN, Associated Press Writer
It was billed as a conversation with U.S. troops, but the questions
President Bush asked on a teleconference call Thursday were
choreographed to match his goals for the war in Iraq and Saturday's
vote on a new Iraqi constitution.
"This is an important time," Allison Barber, deputy assistant defense
secretary, said, coaching the soldiers before Bush arrived. "The
president is looking forward to having just a conversation with you."
Barber said the president was interested in three topics: the overall
security situation in Iraq, security preparations for the weekend vote
and efforts to train Iraqi troops.
As she spoke in Washington, a live shot of 10 soldiers from the Army's
42nd Infantry Division and one Iraqi soldier was beamed into the
Eisenhower Executive Office Building from Tikrit - the birthplace of
former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
"I'm going to ask somebody to grab those two water bottles against the
wall and move them out of the camera shot for me," Barber said.
A brief rehearsal ensued.
"OK, so let's just walk through this," Barber said. "Captain Kennedy,
you answer the first question and you hand the mike to whom?"
"Captain Smith," Kennedy said.
"Captain. Smith? You take the mike and you hand it to whom?" she
asked.
"Captain Kennedy," the soldier replied.
And so it went.
"If the question comes up about partnering - how often do we train
with the Iraqi military - who does he go to?" Barber asked.
"That's going to go to Captain Pratt," one of the soldiers said.
"And then if we're going to talk a little bit about the folks in
Tikrit - the hometown - and how they're handling the political
process, who are we going to give that to?" she asked.
Before he took questions, Bush thanked the soldiers for serving and
reassured them that the U.S. would not pull out of Iraq until the
mission was complete.
"So long as I'm the president, we're never going to back down, we're
never going to give in, we'll never accept anything less than total
victory," Bush said.
The president told them twice that the American people were behind
them.
"You've got tremendous support here at home," Bush said.
Less than 40 percent in an AP-Ipsos poll taken in October said they
approved of the way Bush was handling Iraq. Just over half of the
public now say the Iraq war was a mistake.
White House press secretary Scott McClellan said Thursday's event was
coordinated with the Defense Department but that the troops were
expressing their own thoughts. With satellite feeds, coordination
often is needed to overcome technological challenges, such as delays,
he said.
"I think all they were doing was talking to the troops and letting
them know what to expect," he said, adding that the president wanted
to talk with troops on the ground who have firsthand knowledge about
the situation.
The soldiers all gave Bush an upbeat view of the situation.
The president also got praise from the Iraqi soldier who was part of
the chat.
"Thank you very much for everything," he gushed. "I like you."
On preparations for the vote, 1st Lt. Gregg Murphy of Tennessee said:
"Sir, we are prepared to do whatever it takes to make this thing a
success. ... Back in January, when we were preparing for that
election, we had to lead the way. We set up the coordination, we made
the plan. We're really happy to see, during the preparation for this
one, sir, they're doing everything."
On the training of Iraqi security forces, Master Sgt. Corine Lombardo
from Scotia, N.Y., said to Bush: "I can tell you over the past 10
months, we've seen a tremendous increase in the capabilities and the
confidences of our Iraqi security force partners. ... Over the next
month, we anticipate seeing at least one-third of those Iraqi forces
conducting independent operations."
Lombardo told the president that she was in New York City on Nov. 11,
2001, when Bush attended an event recognizing soldiers for their
recovery and rescue efforts at Ground Zero. She said the troops began
the fight against terrorism in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist
attacks and were proud to continue it in Iraq.
"I thought you looked familiar," Bush said, and then joked: "I
probably look familiar to you, too."
Paul Rieckhoff, director of the New York-based Operation Truth, an
advocacy group for U.S. veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, denounced
the event as a "carefully scripted publicity stunt." Five of the 10
U.S. troops involved were officers, he said.
"If he wants the real opinions of the troops, he can't do it in a
nationally televised teleconference," Rieckhoff said. "He needs to be
talking to the boots on the ground and that's not a bunch of
captains."

Ironically it was precisely this combination of unwillingness to
consider ALL of the facts combined with a culturally myopic "they will
welcome us with flowers and chocolates" attitude which convinced 71% of
Americans that invading Iraq was a good idea...
Perhaps next time, if you really are serious about "caring about our
kids" then -just once- you will consider the facts as a whole; you
might reach a different conclusion as to the best course of action to

"In a deliciously ironic twist of fate, shortly before airing a segment
aimed at embarrassing the Bush administration by suggesting that it had
staged a video conversation between the president and soldiers in Iraq, the
Today show was caught staging . . . a video stunt.
In the Bush/Iraq segment, Today screened footage indicating that prior to
engaging in a video conversation with President Bush, soldiers on the ground
in Iraq were given tips by a Department of Defense official.
But the only advice that the official was shown as giving was a suggestion
to one solider to "take a little breath" before speaking to the president so
he would actually be speaking to him. It was also stated that some of the
soldiers practiced their comments so as to appear as articulate as possible.
But there was no indication, or even allegation, that the soldiers were
coached as to the substance of their comments or in any way instructed what
to say

tell it to the soldiers.
SGT. Ron Long, an Army combat medic, was at the "staged" press conference in
Iraq. He has blogged his response to the MSM Bush-bashing. (Hat tip: Reader
John S.)
Here's an excerpt:
Yesterday, I (bottom right corner in the picture) was chosen to be among a
small group of soldiers assigned to the 42ID's Task Force Liberty that would
speak to President Bush, our Commander-in-Chief. The interview went well,
but I would like to respond to what most of the mass-media has dubbed as, "A
Staged Event."
First of all, we were told that we would be speaking with the President of
the United States, our Commander-in-Chief, President Bush, so I believe that
it would have been totally irresponsible for us NOT to prepare some ideas,
facts or comments that we wanted to share with the President.
We were given an idea as to what topics he may discuss with us, but it's
the President of the United States; He will choose which way his
conversation with us may go.
We practiced passing the microphone around to one another, so we wouldn't
choke someone on live TV. We had an idea as to who we thought should answer
what types of questions, unless President Bush called on one of us
specifically.
President Bush told us, during his closing, that the American people were
behind us. I know that we are fighting here, not only to preserve our own
freedoms, but to establish those same freedoms for the people of Iraq. It
makes my stomach ache to think that we are helping to preserve free speech
in the US, while the media uses that freedom to try to RIP DOWN the
President and our morale, as US Soldiers. They seem to be enjoying the fact
that they are tearing the country apart. Worthless!

The President's questions were rehearsed. Their answers were rehearsed. What
was the point of the exchange?
And WTF should I believe in somebody who was part of this charade? Like he's
going to say about a sitting President (from an administration that uses
revenge indiscriminately) "yeah, I can't believe we took part in such
obvious propaganda".
Come on - if the President's questions are known in advance, and the
soldiers answers are known in advance, why not handle the whole thing in an
email?

Except the questions were all rehearsed in advance. I'd bet $10,000 Bush had

WTF does this crap you posted have to do with my comments? I don't
care about this morning's fraud. I expect staged crap from every
administration and to date I have never been disappointed. I saw some
of this morning's talk with Bush, I turned it off because I thought it
was staged propogandist trash. And as to the interpretation

>
there was actually a bit more to it than that, you can read a partial
transcript here:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051014/ap_on_go_pr_wh/bush_iraq
Regardless I see that you are very caught up in the minutia of the
"staged-gate" moment, I was posting from a larger perspective than this
morning. To make my point more obvious:
Somewhere between Bush's "this {case against Iraq} is really thin"
direct quote in Bob Woodward's book "Plan of Attack", and Cheney's
known lie about a connection between 9/11 and Iraq, and the complete
OMMISSION of any connection between Saudi Arabia and 9/11, and the
fabricated "yellow cake" documents, and Condaleeza Rice's "mushroom
cloud" comments, and the deliberate breach of 40+ years of standard
practice for handling single source intelligence ala "curveball", and
George Tenet's "slam dunk" statement, and Gen. Abizaid's "we need at
least 350,000 troops" testimony which was countermanded by Paul
Wolfowitz's "we can be in and out in 6-9 months with 60,000 troops"
testimony, and Collin Powell's gigantic pile of B.S. story told to the
U.N....
SOMEWHERE in all of that blatently propogandistic B.S. crap a sane
person SHOULD HAVE questioned the motives of this administration. But
71% of Americans did NOT question. Most people thought and acted like
the person to whom I was responding. Maybe next time people like he
will look at ALL of the evidence and THINK before committing a
generation of "our kids" to a strategic disaster like Iraq...
And FYI in case you are still oblivious enough to think it was an
"honest intelligence mistake" about WMD:
"For bureaucratic reasons we settled on WMD because it was the one
reason everyone could agree on".
- Paul Wolfowitz, Vanity Fair Magazine 2004
