Ya gotta love K-Lo’s column today on the press reaction to the president’s Rose Garden press conference on April 29th.

The next day, WaPo’s Dana Milbank ridiculed the president for pointing out how little Congress is getting done — while failing to talk about the U.S. recession, “which everybody seems to be acknowledging but Bush.” To which one can only respond, “Um, what recession?” Apparently, there is no lame-duck session for blaming Bush.

Milbank concluded his piece with, “His is a slow and torturous disappearing act.” One could say the same about Bush bashing.
