Biased Broadcasting Corporation - US President George W Bush

Biased Broadcasting Corporation
Story from BBC NEWS:
US President George W Bush has told Americans that Iraq is now a strong ally against terror and a force for democracy in the Middle East.
He went on prime-time TV to defend the continuing US role in Iraq, rejecting the view that the war there was "not worth another dime or another day".
A US military pullout now, he said, would "hand Iraq over to enemies".
He said Iraq's election was the start of constitutional democracy at the heart of the Middle East.
[BBC does believe this of course]
More than 2,100 US troops have been killed in Iraq since the end of the US-led invasion of April 2003, as well as more than 30,000 Iraqis.
[Must emphasise the negative]
Mr Bush insisted the war had helped stave off new terror attacks on the US since 9/11.
[BBC does believe this of course]
The BBC's James Coomarasamy reports from Washington that this is Mr Bush's fifth speech on Iraq in under three weeks.
[Less than three weeks five speeches, why this comment?]
In tone, he is more contrite than he has been in the past, more willing to admit mistakes and listen to what he calls his honest critics, but no less determined to stay the course, our correspondent says.
[BBC says Bush has much to be contrite about poor Saddam.]
