...feet." Nonetheless, Bush, whose stump patter often includes a paean to maternal wisdom, is learning the hard way a lesson any mother could have imparted: you have only one chance to make a first impression. --With reporting by Perry Bacon Jr., Timothy J. Burger, Massimo Calabresi, James Carney, Matthew Cooper and Karen Tumulty / Washington...
...kind of thinking reminds me of the surgeon who announces, "The operation was a success, but the patient died." I suppose Rice will declare total victory when Iraq has become the world's largest graveyard. Ronald Rubin Topanga, California, U.S. Sharing Journalists' Notes Time's decision to turn over Cooper's reporting notes [July 18] is akin to negotiating with terrorists.

...Cooper's Testimony Time correspondent Matthew Cooper's account of what he told the grand jury investigating the leak of the identity of CIA officer Plame [July 25] increased my level of trust in journalists several notches above its usual place?that is, below that of used-car salesmen.

He actually seems to think that he can be a little like the rest of us and still...
...What stands out most for me is the lengths to which Cooper was willing to go to protect Rove as his source [of information that Wilson's wife worked for the CIA]?just as any great reporter would for any other source. Too often those in this country, who decry the "mainstream news media" as liberally biased, forget that the Founding Fathers wrote the First Amendment to protect our democracy, not to destroy it. By keeping Rove's identity confidential, Cooper, in the finest tradition of journalism, proved that freedom of the press protects all of us, regardless of race...
