] The White House is vowing a strong retaliatory response
] after the BBC aired live video of President Bush getting
] his hair coiffed in the Oval Office as he squirmed in his
] chair and practiced on the teleprompter minutes before
] Wednesday night's speech announcing the launch of
] military operations against Saddam Hussein.
]
] "The facts are that it was an unauthorized use of footage
] and video," a senior White House official told us, asking
] not to be named. "Both the BBC and CBS have apologized,
] and it would be understandable if this were the only time
] this has happened. I'm not suggesting it was intentional,
] but this kind of thing has happened more than once."
]
] Henceforth, the official said, the White House -- not the
] networks -- will throw the switches that make pool feeds
] available to broadcast outlets. "There have been too many
] incidents," the official said, listing various
] presidential speeches allegedly marred by pool-feed
] glitches. "We have to make sure we are comfortable with
] the situation."

Someone really needs to meme a link to video of this..
