Kofi Considers Resigning

Hey, if the MSM can play with vague responses, so can I. Remember last week when Bush told Neil Cavuto that he's always looking at alternatives in response to Cavuto's question about closing Guantanamo? The media responded joyfully with headlines, "Bush Considers Closing Gitmo," "Bush Open to Possibly Closing Guantanamo," etc.

At today's press conference, a reporter asked Kofi Annan whether he would resign if the Volcker Commission determined that Kofi withheld important information. Annan's answer was interesting - for the first time he simply responded with, "that is speculative," rather than denying the possibility of resigning.

So get out the MSM translation device: "Kofi Considers Resigning."
