Scotty the liar on C-Span1 NOW!

[Webster Green]

Heads up!

Popcorn alert!


Demand resignations! Now!

[tavalon]

1. Link!

[onecent]

2. Natural disaster....I'm going to see how many times he says

that word.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

9. Man they are slick with frames

It's Floodgate!

The man made disaster (Bush-made disaster) was the unnaturally slow response to the flooding.

[JuniperLea]

3. TEASE!

Ok you guys! This teasing is not nice! Those of us w/o a TV at the moment are squirming! :)

[Spazito]

5. Link to CSPAN streaming

http://www.c-span.org/watch/cspan_rm.asp?Cat=TV&Code=CS

[JuniperLea]

6. Thanks!

[stray cat]

4. Blame game - count the times!

[JuniperLea]

7. Then count how many times he points the finger elsewhere

[Catfight]

Oh goodie, I LOVE puppet shows! nt

[deminks]

8. Has Mike Brown resigned yet?

Scotty - No. Does the preznut have full confidence in Mike Brown? Scotty - blah blah blah blah, blah.

[antonialee839]

11. Focused in a very sharp way Scott?

[0007]

12. Tis all Cheroff, what a guy. A super star he is.

Does junior still have full confidence in Mike Brown, Scotty sez yeah and quickly went off the subject.

[Botany]

10. Puffy Mc Moon Face ...... talks

:popcorn:

Kelly O'Donnel nbc = whore


answer the ? Puffy! Why does Brown still have a job?

[Skidmore]

19. Can we get Pelosi to suggest to Kelly that she go on the

WH payroll, too?

[SoCalDem]

13. Time for Scotty-Bingo

He's so predictable, we need a bingo game for his conferences,,
(too early for a game of 'shots')

blame
"impordant"
now is not the time
there will be plenty of time
not goin' there
state and local officials
the president believes

[antonialee839]

16. You can add "moving forward"

[antonialee839]

20. Bingo

[SoCalDem]

98. and "LES"..( as in please ask about gay marriage again)

and then a toss to the Pakistani guy and then the guy from Spain:)

[deminks]

14. Scotty - we've talked to economic experts about Katrina...

and the term they are using is "modest effect".

[Sydnie]

15. More tax cuts for the rich in the pipeline

Trickle down economics lives while the citizens die.

"Will have a moderate effect on the economy" "Must keep our economy growning" "the budget we have outlined is important"

[BlueJac]

17. Fuck...

Does he ever say anything?? Double talker of the fucking year!

[TroglodyteScholar]

28. Blah blah blah...

I like the term "duckspeak" better than double talk. Scotty really does remind me of a duck quacking.

[IdaBriggs]

18. Duplicate Partial Post. nt

[IdaBriggs]

21. Q: 4 yrs after 9/11 nation's response was a debacle.

A: The President is going to lead effort to investigate the response to Katrina. In a lot of areas there was a good response. Its the worst national disasters in our nation's history. We must look at the lessons and fully prepare for any attack on our nations including WMD or diseases.

Constructive criticism is good, political talk isn't.

Faith based community leaders are going to lead the way.

ON EDIT: Spelling & Coherency.

[IdaBriggs]

22. AND REMEMBER September 11th--

great work of first responders.

It will never happen again cause we're taking the fight to the enemy and bringing change to the middle east!

ON EDIT: Here's where he went totally bananas for a bit -- suddenly Katrina was all about how we are making great progress in the Middle East and on the War on Terror. It was ... incoherent.

[Rose Siding]

124. Don't suppose he mentioned that attacks outside of Iraq have doubled

since the invasion. :grr:

[antonialee839]

23. What does 911 have to do with hurricanes?

[Norquist Nemesis]

27. President will be talking about 9/11

(and once again they're whipping out 9/11, TERROR! WAR! FIGHT THEM ABROAD! and now will link to Katrina! :wtf:

[onecent]

37. I can't wait, cuz I think talking about 9/11 right now while Katrina

is such a fuck up..will incite people beyond belief. I know it will me.

We have a National Disaster FAR bigger than 9/11....

The only way B* could be redeemed is to bring all troops home now
and send them to La, Miss. and Alabama.

[Botany]

30. Answer the ?

Are we ready now based on what happened in the Gulf South?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

33. Bush to investigate himself in the Floodgate Scandal.

[gkhouston]

*why* should faith-based community leaders lead the way?

not that I have anything against them, but why isn't our government capable of leadership anymore?

[back2basics909]

55. Part of his base..

.. which he needs.

[Spazito]

Anyone noticing Scottie is not using "Blame Game' any more

the new talking point is "political talk". I guess internal polling showed "Blame Game" wasn't working well. ROFL

[antonialee839]

32. I've heard "moving forward" about 3 times now.

I think that is a new phrase.

[gkhouston]

35. old one; recycled. Press corps knows it; I heard a reporter mock

Scotty with it a couple of days ago.

[Spazito]

36. That one was inserted a few days ago, together with "Blame Game"

I suspect they have found less flack over the 'moving forward' meme than the blame game one so they are leaving it in for now.

[gkhouston]

34. I think the briefing where the press corps pointed out that

it was accountability and a talking point did that in. Or maybe it was Jon Stewart's wonderful bit about the "blame game".

[geomon666]

24. Great work of the first responders?

They weren't even allowed in ass!

[Horse with no Name]

25. Invoking the power of the images of 911

The resolve of this nation
prvent something like this from happening again
take it to the enemy
help change the middeast

[mtnester]

132. So just how are we going to take it to an enemy hurricane?

Do we have some secret hurricane blaster weapons that we can lay in wait way out in the Carribean for them? Can we sneak up on them and go Boo?

These have not even been press breiefings for years. They have been a PR speech for a long time.

[Sydnie]

26. Ding Ding Ding - "solve problems"

new meme added to the old ones - How many times are they going to say that?

"help change the middle east by bringing hope and freedom"

[JNelson6563]

94. We solve problems cause we're problem solvers

We A, B because we're ABers. :toast:

Julie

[Webster Green]

103. "On the ground".....seems to be the new theme...

"We're on the ground"..."solving problems"...


Demand resignations! Now!

[Horse with no Name]

29. OMG

we've prevented another terrorist attack on the ground
:puke:

[mainegreen]

31. That's why we're going to change the middle east

By installing Islamic Clerical Dictatorships instead of Secular Dictatorships!

[gkhouston]

39. this would be funny if it weren't tragic

usually they're trying to talk about stuff here to distract from the PR disasters in Iraq. This week, it's the other way around.

[antonialee839]

41. Dumb-ass speaking soon?

[treefrogjohn]

42. Faith-Based Dictatorships!

Isn't that what is happening?

[Moosepoop]

38. "Broad characterization"

That, and "incorrect characterization", are fast becoming two of Scotty's favorite terms. :eyes:

[Botany]

40. Please I want to see him break down ......

.... all double talk.

Ask about Brown's Resume!

[antonialee839]

46. Who is that? Jeff Gannon?

[Skidmore]

43. Don't they have enough "big ideas", and haven't those

ideas killed enough people to satisfy them?

[mainegreen]

44. Czar is a broad term

WTF is wrong with this ding-dong? Has he ever been to DC? How could he not know what a Czar is?

:grr: :grr:

[Norquist Nemesis]

45. Oh GEEZ!!! Now the Katrina Czar!

Jesus Christ!!! Chris Matthews has been pushing this for the past FOUR DAYS! "Does the President need to appoint a Czar like Rudy Guilliani for Hurricane Katrina?" :puke:

[Skidmore]

50. Dems need to come out hard and insist on the fact that

this is Chertoff and Brownie's jobs. Either fire them and get someone who can do the work or get them in line if * feels so sure he knows what he is doing.

[Norquist Nemesis]

64. Bingo! And Matthews needs to shut the fuck up!

Sick of hearing it! He's pushed it and pushed it and pushed it! Now it's getting into the stream. :grr:

[Norquist Nemesis]

47. Oh, Bush can multi-task!

No, the President is focusing on the war fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here at home.

The President is focusing on 'bringing the nation together' and solving problems here at home.

[IdaBriggs]

48. 2,000 people working hard; 20 political appointees.

Its all about Homeland Security.

[Horse with no Name]

49. Don't know what you guys are screaming about

"Some of the people are qualified":sarcasm:

[Spazito]

51. ROFL, Les is yelling and the real reporter is yelling over him

what a hoot!

[CottonBear]

52. "...fight them overseas instead of here" unless you're poor or black inNO

"Don't get exasperated...don't get dramatic...providing regular updates..."
What an ASS. "I want to concentrate on Katrina stuff..."

[Sydnie]

53. 20 political appointees in FEMA?

"they are under the DHS and Chertoff is the head of that" "2000 or so fema people working around the clock ... maybe 20 political appointees in total"

[gkhouston]

56. 20 is A LOT

especially if they have all the decision-making power... and no qualifications.

[Sydnie]

71. You KNOW those aren't the grunts on the ground

those are the ones that, as they said about Gonzales yesterday with Dickie-do, that are "along for the ride".

:hi: GK! Good to see you!

[gkhouston]

89. Hey, Sydnie.

yes, I know they aren't the worker bees. The worker bees actually know how to do their jobs and don't wash in and out when the Administrations change, unless they get flat-out disgusted with who's in office. Those 20 are some highly incompetent management giving FEMA a very black eye. I pity the grunts; they must be taking this personally and they've known for some time what we're just now finding out.

[IdaBriggs]

54. Q: Does the President support his two fellow Republican governors

in their campaign to stop same sex marriage?

I'm sticking to Katrina says Scotty.

(Someone else was getting pissy about not getting answers from FEMA re: the debit cards.)

[antonialee839]

57. Like you took Katrina seriously

[merbex]

59. Who was the doofus that asked about gay marriage?

[smartvoter]

66. That guy is a total idiot. The questions he asks are absurd. nt

[SoCalDem]

116. Les Kinsolving (idiot)

years ago he was an actual 'reporter' , but now he's a 'freelance' guy from some bogus organization..The bad thing is, that if he's forced out of the briefings, Helen could be also, since she too is a columnist and "contributor", but not on the payroll of a major news service or paper these days..

[IdaBriggs]

58. The prez is holding meetings, but Scotty knows nothing. (Homeland Sec) nt

[CottonBear]

69. "Why was * so wrong about the condition of the levees..."

Now he's trying to weasel out of that one by saying the media said the NOLA dodged the bullet so therefore * thought everything was OK>

BLAMING THE FLOODS ON THE MEDIA.

[gkhouston]

79. the president gets his briefings from the media? LOL. n/t

[gkhouston]

60. has anyone asked about Brown's resume?? n/t

[Spazito]

67. Yep, Scottie's answer: FEMA has disputed that report

lol

[gkhouston]

72. and you can trust FEMA

:rofl:

[CottonBear]

61. "We will stay on top of counter-terrorism..." "Let's stay on Katrina..."

"The president is going to speak shortly..."
Now blabbering on about short, mid and long-term housing.

[Horse with no Name]

62. New talking point

"moving forward"

can't spin the shit behind us so we are going to work on spinning the shit in front of us

[antonialee839]

65. Uh oh, breach of the levies back to haunt Georgie again.

[Jeanette in FL]

74. I think Scotty is forgetting his time line

Is saying that on Tuesday all papers where reporting that NO had dodged the bullet. The levee was breeched Monday morning, correct?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

123. The "Dodged a Bullet" headline lie has been exposed.

No US paper had that headline on Monday or Tuesday. By Wednesday it was too late.

[Rose Siding]

125. Yes -reported at about 2:20am EST

[Norquist Nemesis]

76. Don't forget "focus"

The president is 'focused' on <fill in the blank and use hand gestures for emphasis>

They're multi-task capable...NOT!!! That's why it's now going to go under the umbrella of 9/11! BOO!!!

[IdaBriggs]

63. News from Scotty: Hurricanes are bad. Really bad.

They cost people money, and we've got a plan. :eyes:

[antonialee839]

68. Bing fucking Oh Dodged the Bullet.

[Sydnie]

100. He's talking about intelligence was wrong with the Iraq stuff

They got it wrong in NO too, and we didn't need no damn translators for that. They got their "intelligence" by reading the headlines and looking at the pretty pictures above the fold!

Who the HELL does he think he is kidding?

Thanks for asking that question Helen!

75. I want to see these news reports about the dodged bullet you freaking liar

[antonialee839]

80. Moving forward again twice in one sentence

[geomon666]

73. Spreading the lie!

About newspapers saying NO dodged a bullet. They still haven't found a single headline that says that and they won't.

[CottonBear]

82. LIAR! We need to bring back the pants-on-fire-mobile.

"We'll investigate at the appropraite time." Which is never.

Helen is up: Q. about false testimony of Powell at UN.
Q. Is * responsible to leading us into war on a lie?

[onecent]

77. where goin wrong, gonna make sure things goin' right...har har

[IdaBriggs]

78. "No one could anticipate the breech of the levees ..." really means ...

Everyone is just misunderstanding the Pretzeldent. He really meant they thought they had already dodged the bullet because it happened AFTER the hurricane. Hearing that just means anybody who heard him say it is simply misinterpreting him, because he was talking about how they "dodged the bullet" not that he really meant he didn't think the levees might break.

[antonialee839]

84. Please Helen, we're moving forward damn you!

[Norquist Nemesis]

81. Helen up now!! n/t

[Norquist Nemesis]

88. Powell said lies were a blot on his career

Does the President take responsibility? Is he accountable? (paraphrased)

A: That's why he appoint a commission on ...

[CottonBear]

90. Helen nailed Scotty about the lies that * used to leas us to war in Iraq.

Helen is up: Q. about false testimony of Powell at UN.
Q. Is * responsible to leading us into war on a lie?

Now Q. re: gay marriage. A. Btwn.a man and a woman. :grr:

[Horse with no Name]

83. Accountability has been a priority of this administration?????

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[burythehatchet]

95. did you notice a bunch of people coughed and said "blowjob" under

their breath?

[gkhouston]

112. Get out! Did they? n/t

[TroglodyteScholar]

114. No way! Seriously? I missed that... n/t

[gkhouston]

108. sure it was. For about 30 seconds, in the middle of the night,

one Tuesday, last year. Did you miss it?

[IdaBriggs]

85. Helen Thompson: Powell says making him lie to the UN is a blot

on his career. The prez established some commission because accountability is important. The Robb-Silverman commission looked at things so we could fix things. We took responsibility by acting to fix problems that were there.

[geomon666]

86. Accountability is important?

Who the f*** are you kidding pigface?

[burythehatchet]

87. "Accountability has been a priority in this admninistration"

Excuse me -- I just blew coffee all over the place!

[burythehatchet]

110. i kept laughing when all the people in the room coughed

after he said that.

[samsingh]

128. simple question to ask:

what are the bushies accountable for Scott?

[Norquist Nemesis]

99. A Count A Bill (Blame Clinton) n/t

Make that A Count To Bill. :evilgrin:

[Rose Siding]

127. Hey, it's true! Whenever anyone deviates from the talking points,

boy howdy, out they go!

[kbm8795]

91. He is full of crap.

I'm sick and tired of hearing him talk about how we need to make sure all the resources are put in place to help people. Those resources needed to be in place when the hurricane hit - and trying to hide behind a couple of newspaper headlines is an absolutely irresponsible response.

Someone needs to ask Scottie: "When can we expect the President to address why he did not offer assistance to the City of New Orleans and the state of Louisiana when Mayor begged for help as the levees broke?"

And who...WHO is this wingnut reporter who is obsessed with same-sex marriage?

[IdaBriggs]

92. Same sex marriage again -- sacred institution, blah, blah, blah. nt

[burythehatchet]

97. i wonder who that potted plant is?

although he's not as bad as the indian guy.

[CottonBear]

109. "We'll overcome challeges by working together." And he's out of there.

He RAN away like the treasonous coward that he is. :grr:

[burythehatchet]

117. CottonBear, how sad it is that the white house press conf

is my most anticipated event of the day.

[CottonBear]

131. It is sad and it's also sad that I too look forward to it.

:( I have been so angry and depressed. Mr. CottonBear's family has evacuated and are safe for now but our beloved New Orleans may never be the same again. :cry:

I do love to watch Scotty McMoonface spin and dodge daily. It's sick fun, but fun nontheless. :(

[Sydnie]

118. That's Les - the always a safe question - Jeff Gannon of his

generation.

You need to cut the Indian guy a little slack. He is trying to do his job by asking questions that are relevant to his country so he can report that info there. It is an irritation to us that want to see Scott cry, but he really is just doing his job.

[burythehatchet]

129. no slack for the indian - he should know that he takes the heat

off chimpy, and I believe he does that as a service to scotty. ;) (I'm indian btw)

[IdaBriggs]

105. The 1st Responders were on top of things.

Massive catastropher. Later we learned the levees breeched.

Its been an unprecedented unchallenge and we're going to overcome it together.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

121. It just hit me - Snotty is that elephant that is tap dancing on a TV

commercial running right now. A happy-go-lucky elephant tap dancing its little heart out to a rendition of "Singing in the Rain" to promote GE. No worries, happy as can be...that's Snotty. We are living in a TV commercial!

It sums up perfectly this administration.

[Jeanette in FL]

93. regarding NO dodged the bullet

Does the president rely on Newspaper headlines for his information

[antonialee839]

106. I can't believe they are still trying to trot out the "Dodged Bullet"

[RSchewe]

102. Who said that NO doged a bullet?!

Media, people on the ground?

WHO?!

Name some names. The flawed response was based on them. We should know who the administration is litsening to with an issue like this.

[Jeanette in FL]

119. Found Headline-NO dodges bullet

World Net Daily

IN KATRINA'S WAKE
Hurricane slams ashore,
N'Orleans dodges bullet
Storm downgraded to Category 2, flooding traps residents on roofs

Eye of Hurricane Katrina

As Hurricane Katrina moves further onshore in the Gulf of Mexico, the squall has been downgraded it to a Category 2 storm, sparing New Orleans the total devastation that was predicted for the city but still causing a number of major disruptions and concerns.

Katrina, which hit land this morning with winds in excess of 145 miles an hour, has caused a number of levees to break in New Orleans, leading authorities to fret over the potential for widespread flooding, though, at the same time, popular areas of the city such as the French Quarter are free from rising water for the time being.

While the hurricane first was predicted to hit New Orleans head-on, it came ashore east of the city.

http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=46025

So that's what the president been reading, no wonder he thinks he is in good shape

[RSchewe]

120. He said they don't rely on news reports but ppl on the gound.

I wonder who.

Thanks for the link.

[maxrandb]

130. Jesus on a Trailor Hitch!!!

Please tell me our pretzledent is not getting his news from World Nut Daily. That's like getting your news from Fox, or broadcasting Rush Limbaugh on Armed Forces Radio....er...NEVERMIND!

[gkhouston]

122. let's pretend for a moment that blivet** gets his information from

McPaper and he thought that. Wouldn't there still need to be a lot of boots on the ground clearing up the mess, and not just in New Orleans? As horrible as the levee breach has been, it's not the only problem left behind by Katrina. Why has the rescue response been so pitiful in Mississippi? Biloxi got creamed and Waveland is flat-out gone. They sure as hell didn't dodge any bullets -- why has the response been so slow?

[Norquist Nemesis]

107. Excuse me while I go turn off the media...Bush up next! n/t

[ima_sinnic]

111. I JUST missed that. Has anyone asked WHY * didn't do ANYthing

for 4 or 5 days after katrina made landfall?

[Lochloosa]

113. They are throwing Chertof (spelling) under the bus

Scotty keeps referring to "Chertof is the Director of Homeland Security and everyone answers to him" heard it a couple of times.

[GreenPartyVoter]

115. So both Chertof and Brown will go down?
