-Caveat Lector- WHITE HOUSE INSTALLS ANTI-QUESTION SHIELD AROUND ARI FLEISCHER
Fearing a barrage of press corps questions that the White House does not want to answer, the Bush Administration has installed a high-tech anti-question shield to protect Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, sources confirmed today. The multi-billion dollar shield is designed to shoot down questions that could address what the White House feels is classified or sensitive information. The first test of the new shield was successfully employed today during a press briefing, intercepting and destroying a question related to what constituted classified or sensitive information. "This is a huge step forward in the White House communications defense system," said an administration source who explained that the system automatically responds to questions that attempt to penetrate the shield by launching a series of pat, repetitive and purposefully vague responses. The defense shield can respond immediately to any question fired off by reporters by launching standard, defensive non-answers, such as "I believe the president has made himself clear on that issue," "You'd have to talk to the DOD (Department of Defense)," or "I'm not going to talk about operational matters." Critics maintain that the shield may not be foolproof and that some tough questions could get through. Asked whether President Bush had concerns that a serious question could penetrate the shield, Fleischer said, "I believe the president has made himself clear on that issue." _____________________ http://www.bobsfridge.com/ <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
