But for the first two years of that miserable ass-hole's administration....the media as a whole was pretty much in love with him.
Are you kidding? After a terrorist attack on the country you think that the media was going to go all left wing on Bush? Are you serious? Do you think editors wanted to get canned? The mood of the country was very apolitical at the time in case you have forgotten.
