All Bubba, All The Time

Even Leftie TV critic Howard Kurtz of the Washington Post couldn't stomach the Bubba bash from the media yesterday:

Clintonista Central

If you were watching cable yesterday, you'd have thought that the capital had been moved to Little Rock.

The media can't resist a gathering of presidents, and never could resist a story line involving Bill Clinton (remember his hospital-bed advice to John Kerry?). Especially when his wife (who's also making the TV rounds, including Larry King and Greta Van Susteren) may run for his old job.

But I don't remember anything like all this live coverage when Bush 41 opened his library, do you? And the ex-prez got an hour with Peter Jennings on "PrimeTime" last night.

Nothing like this for Bush 41. Really Howard? I wonder why.
