I got rid of my TV 5 years ago. Bush did it.

I get my news here at the DU.

[wtmusic]

9. "If there's a political reason for leaking the information, that's fine?"

Scotty coming back like a cornered animal

Will he answer ANY questions?

[fleabert]

14. again, with the 'ongoing investigation'

fucker

[goclark]

15. Now he is going to "take a look at it"

dance

[monarch]

26. Axelrod NAILED him and

all Scottie could do was spit out his prepared speech. The question was something along the lines of. "This question has nothing to do with Plame, was Bush at the least being disengenuous when he told us he was trying to find the leaker since, if he authorized the leak, he already knew the leaker. Axelrod kept at him and I think that's what made Scottie go the "ongoing investigation dodge." Scottied had nothin"

[pacalo]

50. I can't stand to hear him say "in-vesti-guy-tion"

Does he think he's an evangelist?

[wtmusic]

16. Scotty pleading the 5th so he doesn't do time

oh Scott. You are a wonder.

:rofl:

[wtmusic]

24. Helen up--ATTACK!!!

"Does the president know that Joe Wilson was married to a CIA agent?"

Scotty throwing up smoke

[orleans]

17. How much $$ have taxpayers spent on the investigation

where bushie is trying to see how long it takes until they find out it's HIM???

[fleabert]

18. difference between leaking information and providing vital info...

dance you fucker! dance!

[fleabert]

21. democrats refuse to recognize!

It's all OUR fault this is an issue.

NOT THAT IT'S FUCKING ILLEGAL!

[longship]

19. Helen Thomas is in the room.

Front row, and is raising her hand.

[fleabert]

22. ongoing legal proceedings...

no more helen.

[orleans]

20. Dems engage in CRASS POLITICS!

we don't know how to handle security or some such shit.

BUT THEY DO???


haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[monarch]

42. The best part was

the fact that Axelrod got him so flustered that he had to repeat (word for word) his well-rehearsed "crass Democrats" comment.

[orleans]

25. scottie calls for time out to explain the meaning of....life???

no, the meaning of ongoing legal proceeding.

[orleans]

27. it was the SHARING OF INFORMATION IN A HISTORICAL

CONTEST!

why can't we get that through our crass political heads???

[monarch]

34. What a treat!

Axelrod caused Scottie to have to restate (word for word) his crass Democrats line. Heck, it's so painfully obvious that he had rehearsed it.

[Supersedeas]

48. Spying on American citizens has no history???

[Ian David]

28. Robert Byrd is on C-Span 2 reading about Jeee-Zusss

I tuned in late.

Waiting to see his point.

Damn, that man takes his time.

[wtmusic]

29. Scott looks like he's ready to start crying...

Oh why did I ever become a Republican?

[fleabert]

30. when the pres. determines info can be made public..

is that an immediate act, de facto declassification?

[fleabert]

33. reply- yes.authorized to declassify as he chooses! wtf?

[orleans]

31. asking how declassification process works

n/t

[fleabert]

35. ASSHOLE ASSHOLE ASSHOLE

democrats cannot see distinction between declassified and classified info

Dems are stupid for saying bush is the leak and knowingly lied. wtf?

[longship]

37. Fox reporter is NAILING Scotty.

He quotes Reid's statement this AM. Scotty calls it "crass politics".

[SharonRB]

41. Yeah -- even Fox can't ignore this

[wtmusic]

38. FOX's Carl Cameron acknowledging a credibility problem

Scott coming back with crasspoliticscrasspoliticscrasspoliticscrasspoliticscrasspoliticscrasspoliticscrasspolitics...

[fleabert]

39. MEME. we'll hear it for days now....

[fleabert]

45. Difference between "good" leaks & "bad" leaks...

He is too damn funny. This should be on Comedy Channel (besides the Daily Show).

[wtmusic]

46. "We are a nation at war...BE AFRAID..."

so predictable

[wtmusic]

49. WOW...Fox bringing up the "political purpose" of releasing the info

Rupert won't be very happy

[Wilber_Stool]

51. Let me get this straight.

The reason that revealing the NSA wire taps was worst than Plame is that it had never occurred to these deadly sophisticated terrorists that their phones were being tapped?
Is that right?

[wtmusic]

52. Scott saying all AG can offer is a Glomar response

as to whether there is domestic warrantless wiretapping...pathetic

[otohara]

53. Mini Me McClellan

OMG, he was giving Bush's tired old speeches as badly as Bush gives them.
