[HEAVYHEART]

[berni_mccoy]

4. Just posted the link...

[HEAVYHEART]

6. FUCK ME AGAIN!!! n/t

[berni_mccoy]

9. LOL! Damn you, made me SNARF!

:spray: and besides there is NO smiley for "fuck"

[Brother Buzz]

8. I believe the official WH transcripts will be scrubbed....

by day's end...as per SOP.

[berni_mccoy]

46. They are still up there as of now

[edbermac]

2. It will be in my grandkids and great-grandkids wallets...

They'll be footing the bill for the financial fiasco this moran has put us in...

[FormerDittoHead]

3. He was referring to Bill Clinton. :-) n/t

[jmowreader]

5. So now they're pretending Clinton is still president?

Every damn time anything goes wrong in Chimpy's house, he wheels out his most reliable bogeyman: Bill Clinton.

[PA Democrat]

7. OMG! David Gregory is furious with Snotty Scotty.

He is yelling at McClellan to stop dodging his questions. And stop accusing him (Gregory) of playing the "blame game" because he is asking questions to which people deserve an answer.

This is the most contentious press conference yet!

[PA Democrat]

10. Helen Thomas asked if Bush agreed with his mother's categorization of

the people in the Astrodome as "underprivileged" people for whom their situation is an upgrade.

[Garbo 2004]

26. Helen Thomas just rocks. Nails Babs & smug elitists' view of folks. n/t

[NewJeffCT]

39. good fodder for an LTTE

mother of the president, wife of former president... if Hillary was an issue for 8 years of Bill Clinton, why not Babs?

[mattclearing]

11. When this was posted last night, I couldn't recommend it enough.

I still can't. It's clear that the media has woken up to what's going on (or not going on) in the White House.

[donsu]

12. bucks don't stop, they go into pockets

[ComerPerro]

24. Damn right

[berni_mccoy]

13. Cmon People, this needs to be on the Greatest Page

Bush IS READY TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE!!!

Recommend this PLEASE!

[AllegroRondo]

14. My favorite question

Q Well, the President has said that this government can do many things at once: It can fight the war on terror, it can do operations in Iraq, and aid and comfort people in Louisiana. Can it not also find time to begin to hold people accountable? It sounds, Scott, as if the line that you're giving us -- which is, you don't want to answer questions about accountability because there's too much busy work going on --

[kliljedahl]

43. Chew gum or walk, it's a hard choice

* obviously can't do both

[Hubert Flottz]

15. The buck stops in an offshore bank with guys like the neocons

[wildeyed]

16. Ohhhh, they said it. They called him out.

MR. McCLELLAN: We can engage in this blame-gaming going on and I think that's what you're getting --

Q No, no. That's a talking point, Scott, and I think most people who are watching this --

And again....

MR. McCLELLAN: We are securing the American people by staying on the offensive abroad and working to spread freedom and democracy in the Middle East.

Q That's a talking point. That's a talking point.

Will this be re-broadcast? I would like to watch.

[berni_mccoy]

19. I bet Daily Show replays this!

It's TOO DAMN JUICY! Like a Pittsburgh Style Steak: HOT AND BLOODY!

[VolcanoJen]

27. Is this today's press conference, or yesterday's?

I'm watching yesterday's on CSPAN right now...

[wildeyed]

35. The date on the E&P story is dated yesterday.

I will go turn on Cspan and see if it is the same one.

[VolcanoJen]

37. I just got to the "where does the buck stop" question - it's yesterday's.

This is good stuff!!! :popcorn:

[wildeyed]

47. It wasn't on here.

Kofi Annan was on CSPAN and there was a call in show on CSPAN 2. :shrug:

Drat, I really wanted to see it.

[cbear70]

17. unfreakingbelievable !!!!!!!!!!!!!

:wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:

[K8-EEE]

20. God He HATED Saying That

He looked very pissed off at the question! It will come back to haunt him.

[Contrary1]

21. Buh Bye Scottie...

[berni_mccoy]

22. Ah, this may explain why he was so DRUNK:

[CrackpotAmerica]

25. When I heard him say that. . .

I swear I saw a pig fly by my window.

Satan called me and told me he was freezing.

I found Jimmy Hoffa

My cat and dog made up

A great bean stalk sprung forth from the ground. I climbed it and discovered cold fusion


and so on. . .. . .

Kicked for exposing a crack in a crumbling empire!

[berni_mccoy]

30. LOL!

[CrackpotAmerica]

33. Damn, you're quick! N\T

[Career Prole]

28. As the chimp understands it...

[linazelle]

29. "Q Is "Brownie" still doing a "heck of a job," according to the President?

O. M. G.

Priceless!

[VolcanoJen]

41. Man, is Terry Moran pissed!! He shouted that out and interrupted...

... Scotty!!

[insane_cratic_gal]

31. I love David.. the same David from Rove?

Slaughter session?

Who almost always seems to enjoy making Scotty look like the bumbling idiot.

"That's a talking point. That's a talking point." you call him on it David!

[berni_mccoy]

32. "Scotty look like the bumbling idiot"

HE *IS* the bumbling idiot... no effort required to show it. LOL!

[insane_cratic_gal]

36. True True.. but a little push

never hurts, Scotty only needs a tiny nudge. I bet the repukes are longing for the days of Ari. well at least the Ari before he got all tangled up with that Rove, Cia leak, stuff.. but that's just one more shining example of where the buck stops, so far it hasn't like the broken levees it just keeps on hemorrhaging!

[smartvoter]

38. Since when? The time of that question? nt

[berni_mccoy]

44. Yesterday.

Right out of the horses MOUTH.

[imperialismispasse]

40. God they really do hate him dont they?

Their contempt for him is obvious even in the transcript.

[phylny]

50. Anyone think Ari Fleischer is on his knees in thankful prayer

right about now?

[blackcatpgh]

42. KICK...

[cmd]

45. It never stops. It just spins. Gyroscopic responsibility. n/t

[Talismom]

48. The $ stops with the pres, never the responsibility! n/t

[Mein Bush]

49. Doesn't the Buck stop with the almighty?

Afterall, the almighty let him get away with multiple instances of electoral fraud.

[HuskerDU]
