what the hell is wrong with David Gregory?

[greenman3610]

says Bush was restrained and measured after 911 even tho others wanted
to go after iraq.

WTF? Richard Clarke says he was pulled into a room and
commanded to tell Bush that Iraq was behind this. This has
been independently confirmed. Everyone knows this.
No one called Gregory on it.

[Buzz Clik]

1. I have no idea how he comes to his conclusions.

Gregory is an idiot? :shrug:

[rurallib]

2. Far as I am concerned he's a bush ass-kisser from way back.

[laststeamtrain]

3. He works for NBC/GE & he likes the money. Like Tim & Chris.

There's a 'master narrative' that has to be maintained.

[graywarrior]

4. He's a lying fuck.

He and Tweety have not entered through my TV for EVER.

[Justitia]

5. I thought he totally went bonkers after dancing w/Rove. -eom

[JDPriestly]

6. Depends on who you mean by "others." Gregory is referring

to Cheney and Rumsfeld, et al. It's all a matter of compared to whom.

[slor]

7. I said the same thing...

remember "Go Massive" david? And actually, I think it is even more incriminating, that they took time to attack Iraq, which is what they wanted to do right away. They knew they would have to "sell" the war, which is the reason for all the damn duplicity involved during the "sale".

[stray cat]

8. Gregory has his facts right - Bush was holding back compared to Cheney and Wolfowitz

[Spiffarino]

9. So, Crooked Dick and Wolfie were the bank robbers

...and Bush was sitting out in the car with the engine running.

I so get you.

[Usrename]

12. No, it seems like Rachel Maddow is the one who had the facts.

She pointed out that Bush still hasn't caught OBL, and that his whole War on Terra has been a disaster.

[housewolf]

10. Oh man, I HATE being in a position of having to defend Bush!

But... He actually DID wait a year after 911 before demanding that Congress pass the IWR. You know there were those in the administration who wanted to jump on Iraq immediately and SOMEBODY made them wait a year. You know Cheney & Rumsfeld would have had us in Iraq much sooner than we were...

Ewww... ick,... ickkk... ICK! now I gotta go shower!


On second thought, maybe I was defending David Gregory and not Bush... whadda you think????

[Usrename]

11. As if Bush ever did anything that he wasn't told to do by Cheney...

:wtf:

...oh yeah, I forgot, David Gregory believes that Bush is really the DECIDER GUY!

[MagickMuffin]

13. Didn't you hear he was implanted with the Rove BUG of '86?.?.?

They found it while doing an anal probe, after they dislodged his head.

The Rove BUG of '86 is the bug that was found in Rove's office.

[MiniMe]

14. Actually, I think it was Rummy that talked to Clarke the next day

And said something like there are no good targets in Afghanistan, what about Iraq.

[EFerrari]

16. Rumfeld said that in a meeting. Bush did talk to Clarke.

Iirc, Clarke said there was one other person present when he was approached by Bush.

[stellanoir]

15. Hired shill

GE. . .it brings bogus war mongering things to light.

[marmar]

17. He's a perfect example of the utter uselessness of the Washington press corps.....

.... an absolute tool who's at the same time a smug, arrogant, know-it-all.

[spanone]

18. i heard him say that.....he was actually defending bu$h* for his iraq invasion

hey, any 'journalist'' that subs on the 'today show' has very little integrity imo

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. Once GEMSNBC gave David a position as fill-in host on The Today Show, he went to the darkside.

[Irishonly]

20. He must not have read Clarke's book

That is the silliest thing I have heard of. Maybe he has not heard of the Downing Street Memos either.

[BlooInBloo]

21. Um, he's providing cover for the media's abject failure.
