		Bill Plante: But it was clear, from at least the beginning of 2003, if not sooner, that the Bush administration was determined to go to war, and was basically going through the motions of trying to get the United Nations to agree.
		Bill Plante: But just the fact that the United States had been attacked was enough to put most members of Congress on edge because they knew -- deeply -- felt that their constituents wanted answers, wanted the feeling of security and safety, wanted to assure that this sort of thing could never happen again.
		Bill Plante: The responsibility of the United States to the United Nations and to the rest of the world' -- There are as you know, widely differing understandings of exactly what that is. Starting with the administration, which it seems feels very little obligation.

	Interview with Bill Plante, CBS Evening News, White House Correspondent \| Echo Chamber Project (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21)
		PLANTE: The United States continued to argue that no second resolution was needed because of the many previous resolutions calling on Iraq to divest itself of its weapons of mass destruction, which it never did to the satisfaction of the international community.
		PLANTE: The argument that was most often heard was that there is no consensus, that we need to let the inspectors continue their work, that France or Germany is not prepared yet to vote for another resolution.
		PLANTE: If inspections had verified that disarmament had been completed to the satisfaction of all members of the security council, "Would the US have still wanted to go to war?" I think the answer is yes.

	Rhetorica: Press-Politics Journal: TEC: Plante interview
		Plante believes the conflict with Iraq was inevitable.
		PLANTE: First of all, the assumption was that they did have weapons of mass destruction, and I don't think any reasonable person would suggest that they didn't believe that.
		I think we can see evidence from Plante's interview that a master narrative existed in which war with Iraq (the climax of the central conflict) became inevitable.

		BILL PLANTE, WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT, CBS NEWS: The vice president and the White House have both used the constant press coverage of this story as a wedge.
		But if I could add to what Bill was saying, the subtext of what's going on there is Scott McClellan found out about this 12 hours after the fact, and if the press feels that their designated spokesman doesn't know what's going on in the building, they get angry.
		Bill Plante, is the relationship between the White House and the press corps now as tense as you've ever seen it, after now five and a half years in the Bush administration?

	CNN Transcript - Reliable Sources: Will George Bush Be as Thin-Skinned As His Predecessor? Did the Media Make too Much ...
		PLANTE: It could easily be argued that the press nit picks and that different people in the press are going after different angles of the story and that one or more of them is bound to annoy any president, even if it's not President Clinton and now Senator Clinton.
		PLANTE: I think that you have to be honest and say that journalists, particularly those of his own generation, didn't like him very much, at least particularly after some of the more sordid things began to come out.

		And a combination of those two traits may have prompted Plante at recent press "availabilities" to loudly ask President Bush — who views press conferences as opportunities for White House reporters to show off — when he planned to have one.
		But it appears that Plante's two loud appeals, along with a Washington Post editorial urging Bush to meet the press, and the fact that Bush was about to start his summer vacation in Texas, all conspired to prompt Bush's ninth formal news conference last week.
		Plante says Bush, while disliking press conferences, has had a pretty smooth run with the media, compared with some of his predecessors.

		What caught my eye, though, was CBS correspondetnt Bill Plante's comparison of these ads to the Willie Horton ad used in the 1988 campaign.
		Plante's treatment of the Horton story further demonstrates the incoherence of the MSM position on the old ad.
		And Plante then added that the Horton ad was believed, not because it was true or never rebutted, but because it "appealed to people's beliefs and fears." In a way, Plante is correct.

		It took an arms control agreement with the Soviet Union to rejuvenate Reagan's image, but U.S. efforts to deal with the tough issues in the middle east went on hold, helping to set the stage for the first Iraq war and the rise of Islamic fundamentalism.
		Plante and CBS also allege but fail to show how Iran-Contra "set the stage" for the rise of Islamic fundamentalism, given that Islamic fundamentalism had already arisen years earlier, before Reagan was elected.
