We're back, after a brief hiatus. Today's bloggers debate the audience member with the tough questions for the President yesterday in North Carolina. Liberal bloggers love him. Conservatives say the President "hosed him".

The ramp-up to the War in Iraq. It took a while, but the American Mainstream Media finally picked up on the latest memo to come out of meetings between George Bush and Tony Blair. Do they support the President's contention that he "never wanted war"? Watch and decide.
