Snowjob on C-SPAN Now.

[Patsy Stone]

[Reciprocity]

1. Thanks!

[Blackhatjack]

2. Countdown to first Question ....3...2...1... BOOM!!!

[Kadie]

3. children.... uh... young people...

Yep.

[valerief]

4. Caught that. That fact needs to be shouted from the mountaintop. nt

[Patsy Stone]

8. You say tomato...

He began by kinda denying that he said "naughty e-mails". And off we go.

What is this "overly-friendly" euphemism shit?

[11 Bravo]

29. He's a lying sack of shit!

I HEARD him describe the whole thing as "naughty emails" with my own little ears.

[bdamomma]

63. and calling it "gossip" what BS

[Synnical]

82. Yup, and the video is here

http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Video_Tony_Snow_downplays_Foley_scandal_1002.html

The scandal involving Congressman Foley and a teenaged Capitol Hill page is nothing more than "naughty emails", says White Press Secretary Tony Snow.

In the following video, Snow seems to be playing down the Foley scandal, telling reporters, "Yeah, look, I hate to tell you but it's not always pretty up there on Capitol Hill. There have been other scandals, as you know, that have been more than simply naughty emails."

Snow's "naughty emails" remark occurs around 5:28 into the video.

[valerief]

5. Why doesn't their wiretapping program catch internal pedo IMs? nt

[SharonRB]

6. Thanks, Pats!

You home today, too?

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

10. Yep, but I've got it backwards

I'm taking inventory of other people's sins. :hi:

[SharonRB]

16. You and me both!

We don't have any sins, do we?

[Patsy Stone]

18. I am guilty

of too many floaty hearts. I will atone later.

[Avalux]

7. "impressionistic stories" so far - we need the facts.

Deferring to Hastert for specifics on who knew what and when.

[Patsy Stone]

23. That's the problem.

Too much speculation. Kill the messenger!

[Reciprocity]

9. I know nothing about it. What BS.

[Lochloosa]

11. Hastert is Fucked. Snow is throwing him under the bus.

[underpants]

20. I don't get that-he is just stalling --let's get the facts we don't know

that is a Hill matter etc

[knowbody0]

12. Helen looks furious!

and she's wearing leopard.

[Blackhatjack]

13. Ahhhh,..The We Are Dumb As A Stump Defense !!!

They are just the WH, they don't know anything.

[eleny]

14. "The House has to figure out what to say about this"

"figure out"? What's this "figure out" crap?

[Patsy Stone]

31. It's a work in progress

I don't know how they're gonna put a happy face on this, but you can bet they've been up all weekend trying. I'm sure there were plenty of test balloons sent up, however I'm sure each was found to be lined with lead. This is a BIG albatross. Mostly because no one did a damn thing for a year.

[valerief]

15. "Overly friendly emails." Repubs, the overly friendly party.

They were sexually explicit, not overly friendly.

[timber84]

19. Someone needs to ask him if he considers a male adult asking a minor

about the size of their penis is overly friendly? Utter BS

[Divernan]

53. No. The IMs were sexually explicit, not the emails.

nt

[janx]

60. The emails were a creepy segue to the more explicit IMs

One page on the receiving end of the initial emails labeled them as

"sicksicksicksick" etc.

He knew he was being played.

[valerief]

79. Sorry. Should have said Messages to encompass both communication tools.

[Blackhatjack]

17. Show of Hands? WH knows nothing about this, right? n/t

[eleny]

21. "The president doesn't have an obligation to do his own investigation"

This is an outrage. The president calls in memebers of congress whenever he wants to armtwist them about an issue that's important to him and his base. The president can call them to the WH and lean on them heavily if he cares at all about youngsters.

[lapfog_1]

83. I think it was just last Friday when Ingram or one of the other

repuke bubbleheads was saying (after the tape was played of * saying "The party of FDR and Truman has
become the party of 'cut and run'") that the President was not just the leader of the country but
also the head of the party so it was about time he came out swinging...

So, as leader of the party, does he have any responsibility to ensure that senior party officials that
are found to have violated ethics and common morality and likely violated the law are removed from his
party and, especially, from positions of trust with the victims of said party members perversions???

[eleny]

84. Good point!

And it's the face of weakness to beg off saying that the president knows nothing much and hasn't read the IM transcripts. He doesn't have to read them word for word. But he should have gotten the jist from his aides by this morning. So, that's a lame from a weak administration. What's next from Snow - "Hey guys, you know W doesn't read!" ?

[Reciprocity]

22. They care so little about this that they have not even read the documents.

[Subdivisions]

24. They ALWAYS say the haven't read the report yet.

[Reciprocity]

30. It's the cover your ass maneuver.

[radfringe]

74. I call it the Republican

Leaving no child's behind alone...

[SharonRB]

25. I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything just now

This is an administration that has high ethical standards!

:rof:

[liberaldemocrat7]

26. So who will call hastert's office in batavia and ask him to resign?

Who will call Hastert, Boehner. Blunt and Reynolds?

[Blackhatjack]

27. Man Snow is good! Lies So Boldly With a Straight Face ---

---says this WH has high ethical standards. SHEESH.

[Avalux]

28. HA HA - "Admin believes in high ethical standards"

Fundamental question about whether the president is in denial?? "Flat Lie".

President can't dignify baseless allegations (Woodward's book) with a response.

[malaise]

33. Unfuggingbelelievable

They are brazen, arrogant and shameless.

[Avalux]

36. Admin had no problem with Woodward's other two books.

So now he's lying? :shrug:

[SharonRB]

42. You noticed that, too?

What a bunch of fucktards.

[Avalux]

51. Yeah.

I can just imagine the tantrums dimson is throwing over this book - he thought Woodward was his friend!! ;)

[malaise]

81. that's why their lies are falling

on deaf ears this time around. If you agree with them you're the greatest but if you disagree the swiftboaters come out swingting to destroy you.

[bdamomma]

67. yea, sure they have high ethical standards that is why

so many of repigs have committed crimes, they just do not give a shit.

[timber84]

32. Please tell me he'll be taking questions!

Feed the cube rats!

[goclark]

34. African American "April" got in his face

Go my soul sister, go!

[helderheid]

35. she ROCKED

[goclark]

43. First time I've seen her ~ where is she from?

Loved her combative mode!

Let's talk about August 6th ~ why was it not talked about, she said.

You should have gone to the FBI etc. etc.!

Go April

[SharonRB]

47. American Urban Radio

Never heard of it.

[goclark]

52. Finally they have a little tint in the room

April ROCKS!

[Kadie]

50. American Urban Radio

Her name is April Ryan. I have not heard her before. She rocks!

[me b zola]

80. Scotty McTurd yelled at her once

Okay, not really yelled, but was clearly trying to intimidate her and accused her of having an agenda for asking a pertinent question.

[Reciprocity]

39. You go girl!

[Kadie]

44. She did GREAT!

:toast:

[flyarm]

49. APRIL RYAN URBAN *SOMETHING* RADIO..SHE WAS GREAT! N/T

[Patsy Stone]

37. Are you still talking about that damn PDB? The one we ignored?

We TOLD you we ignored it already, and we're still ignoring it. Next!

[SharonRB]

45. Thank you for the second guessing?

:wtf:

[Subdivisions]

38. Everybody is just "second guessing" the administration about PDB

Just, everybody, please, let's not even talk about that anymore.

48. "Let's not look back. It's time now to look forward"

"Everyone keeps concentrating on old meetings and...blah, blah, blah"

[goclark]

57. This is a SNOW DANCE NT

[bdamomma]

71. Snow is just another flea on the windshield

[Patsy Stone]

62. That was SO five minutes ago.

I mean I wasn't even HERE then... :eyes:

[Blackhatjack]

54. The Hogan's Heroes Schultz Defense: "We Know Nothing...."

....they think everyone in the country will give them a free pass by saying they know nothing.

[underpants]

56. Kissinger is an illustration of how OPEN this White House is to opinions

opinions different than their own. See why would Kissinger come by if he agreed with them?

[SharonRB]

58. Ya think it was too glib, Tony?

Huh, do you?

[valerief]

59. Tony was simply naughty. nt

[Blackhatjack]

61. We have not seen that, have not read that , have not looked at that...

At least Bush/Cheney/Snow are using the same defensive technique. We are doing nothing.

[valerief]

64. And we don't recall that. nt

[emalejim9]

65. All links to catch this online are not working

I have tried all media outlets, wh.gov, and Cspan. No surprise.

[flyarm]

66. who misses snotty Scotty?? at least he laughed when he lied!!

this fucker reminds me of chris wallace..and o'liely, and hannity all combined in one..and i just want to kill my tv when he is on!

i really want to smoosh his face!!

he makes me feel ..
not nice...

my fingernails come out longer..and i want to to damage to his face!!


just a passing thought..

fly

[lonestarnot]

70. Pop his head like a pimple

that truth. All he knows to do is lie! And he's not even good at it.

[janx]

68. This is a JOKE.

It's become so much of a joke that the press doesn't even try anymore.

[Patsy Stone]

69. The "pre-existing social relationship rule"

Ah, of course! I had totally forgotten that it was possible to use this particular rule as a loophole for bribery! What an idiot I am. :smacksforehead:

I like how he asked the press, "Is everyone here familiar with the 'pre-existing' social relationship rule'"? What he wanted to follow that up with was, "Because that's what we're using this week to try and get KKKarl off the hook with Abramoff -- so read up on it."

[valerief]

72. He feels for them, he visits them, and he cares for them. And he

keeps sending them to Iraq on multiple tours.

[Patsy Stone]

73. Did Tony just say Abramoff got nothing out of it?

Twice. He said it twice!

[SharonRB]

77. I heard it, too

How about all those meetings with Bush for Abramoff's Indian friends. We've seen the photos.

[ShortnFiery]

75. Yes! Abramoff and Foley acted ALONE! Yes, That's it!

These guys are like the night shift MPs at Abu Garib, it's just one big vacuum. :puke:

Oh, and The Representatives in Leadership Positions can wash their hands of this like the Senior officers within The Abu Garib Fiasco.

Nobody within the BushWorld *inner-circle* takes the blame. They'll probably dig up one of the Housekeepers and blame HER! :P

[Patsy Stone]

76. It's those damn entitlements!

That's what's holding us back, Tony. If only we could get rid of them...

[ShortnFiery]

78. Another Classic Snow Job - all bravado no delivery. :( n/t
