I was listening to this press conference the other day. It is depressing and frustrating that our President feels the need to continually be the class clown while discussing issues that affect and, in many cases, determine the path of others' lives.

On a phone call with the reporter, Peter Wallsten, Bush apologized for his comments.

Wallsten said the president said he would not treat him differently, so Wallsten encouraged him to "needle away."

"He said, `I will. Next time I'll just use a different needle,'" Wallsten said.

Wallsten said he thought that was a pretty good line. And his only complaint is that the president didn't answer his question at the news conference.

I've got a couple of other complaints, but I doubt he'd be interested in hearing them.
