I found Anthony Bourdain's Beirut Lebanon episode informative and touching. Thank you. During the show Mr. Bourdain made comment about a clip shown on CNN over and over again of President Bush taking a bite of a butter roll while Tony Blair was trying to get his attention. I can understand Mr. Bourdain and other's being troubled by that but I would have to ask why did CNN feel it necessary to repeatedly show that short clip? It would have made me upset as well but I think I would have turned my anger toward CNN. It appears to me that CNN will do anything possible to put President Bush in bad light and take every opportunity to portray America as the villain. America is not thought well of in many countries throughout the world and I believe CNN and other network television news programs are largely responsible.

Please accept my apology for accidently placing an Anthony Bourdain post on this forum.
