If you have real player, let it buffer, then drag it to around 29:00 to hear a reporter ask Fleischer about allegations that the Bush Administration is attempting to buy support for his war by offering foreign aid and immigration increases to Syria, Mexico, Ethiopia, and Colombia. He responds that the implication that the administration would attempt to buy support is ridiculous, and the entire white house press corps laughs him off the stage.

Just a little amusement.

Just a little amusement?

I thought it was a lot of amusement, it was like a 24 cola box packed with amusement.

I mean, the whole press corp just laughed at him almost as if they were prompted to. His reply to their question actually dug a large hole in the ground, climbed in and became lower in stupidity than anything I have heard ex V.P.Quayle say. It was ludicrous and it takes a lot to make a whole press corp auto laugh right into your face. The American public if not so bent on egotism should be able to see this and understand that a room full of intelligent, respectful press corp just litteraly laughed him off stage.
