My VERY FAVORITE Question To Scotty Today!
Paraphrasing, I think it was Terry Moran:

If it's the WH policy to "not comment on the ongoing investigation" where are all these pages and pages of GOP talking points coming from addressing specifics that you won't go into? They are saying it was a 2 minute conversation and all this other stuff -- where are they getting this if not from YOU? If not from the WH? How can you "not comment" on it and then feed Fox A CHANNEL FRIENDLY TO YOU, all this stuff?

Oooh! That made Scotty sweat, he did his usual "direct that question to the RNC" and "not helpful for me to say from this podium" and blah blah blah.

He was constantly talking about his podium today! LOL!!! HE LOOKED LIKE HE WAS GONNA CRY! COUPLE OF TIMES! EXCELLENT! Try to catch the RR if you missed it...

2. I love Helen Thomas (I think it was her)
asking if Rove had apologized to McClellan because he had to tell Rove was not involved when he was.

4. Terry Moran is a terrific reporter and sits next to Helen Thomas, to boot!
He's the best ABC has, and one of the best reporters in the business.

7. What an awesome Press Conference!
That video is a keeper!

These guys just DON'T HAVE ANY ANSWERS once they start facing REAL questions!

"Drip, drip, drip" has been officially upgraded to a "steady flow".

9. I loved David Gregory yesterday pointing out that when he said
Rove wasn't involved (in prior briefings), he was COMMENTING on the situation during the investigation. Oh, the hypocrisy :D

10. Should we start writing thank you letters to the Press corp?
Will that help them get those kind of balls for DSM?

11. It's their policy to not comment ON THE RECORD.
The hypocrisy goes on unabated ... off the record, anonymous LEAKS and comments even as they're ass is being singed for leaking in RETALIATION against whistle-blowing.

13. "That came from us" or "Fox made it up" or -- and this is the damning one-
"You never know what unapproved things people in the WH are saying off the record to the press". I'd love to have him admit that the WH staff regularly leaks things that are "unofficial" and "unsanctioned", so that we know that what Rove did was Standard operation procedure.
