Hello,
Thank you for the reply.
I think this story is important because it has such symbolic value. "Bush
wired" would captured in 2 words the essence of what this President is.
I have published since the story you are refering to above. You can see

People have called me looney over news groups and such, but this is not
normal for me, I am no journalist, in fact I have never done anything like
this. I am simply frustrated at the lack of scrutiny during these past 4
years in the press. I decided to take some of my time as a citizen and
document this event by publishing over the internet. I can cite a number
of
examples of my work filtering into journalists work.
I thought what everyone else thought: the media would pounce on this; they
did not.
