1. Let me finish please!
What a petulant a**clown. :(

"The Point I'm making is the MOST IMPORTANT POINT!" Just like a spoiled brat who's not getting his way at the moment.

That's why they kept Military lawyers FIVE hours at the WH to INTIMIDATE them into signing letters composed by Rove-Co's crony lawyers. :grr:

3. I like the fact that CNN has labeled it as sidestepping.

4. I like it too.
CNN would never have done that, even a couple of weeks ago.

Let's hope it's portentious.

5. Are they winding down on interrogations?
He wasn't too concerned about following the Geneva Convention for the past 6 years, why is he suddenly so interested in changing/clarifying the wording? He coudln't care less about those who are doing the interrogations, he's suddenly concerned about his own neck. If they clarify it to the nth degree, he can now say, "Well, we tried to follow it, but it was SO vague...needed clarification, don't you see?"

Sorry, George. Too little, too late.

6. Why the hell wasn't DG backed up
Where was the pounding by other reporters? bush is weak, he confabulates, his answers are childish and he's lost support on this issue from some key repuplican players....so why isn' he being HAMMERED by the press? He's a sitting duck, and the press shoots at the sky.

11. Ya think the CNN reporters will buy a clue when their own network
is using the White House reporter from MSNBC in their video of Little Lord Fauntleroy pissy fit?

8. His handlers have got to be beside themselves...

...trying to figure out how to get Chimpy to perform properly---whatever they're doing now ain't workin'. I think we're going to see the President become inaccessible to the press for a few weeks now, perhaps yet another extended stay in Crawford or Camp David. Chimpy needs decompression time or he's gonna blow.

9. They probably thought he looked like a strong leader - chopping with
his hand, pointing his finger and using presidential words like "vital" and "clarify".

The fact that he sounded like an idiot if you listened to him doesn't concern them as long as he gets a poll bump. If the polls go down, THEN they will be concerned.

12. It hadn't occurred to me that...
Edited on Fri Sep-15-06 01:29 PM by Mr_Jefferson_24
...his pathetic public performances of late could actually help his poll numbers, but I suppose the Hitler-like gesturing and un-presidential childish ranting might breathe new energy into the fanatical freeper subset. I'm sure they're pleased to see Chimpy's determnined to fight for his right to torture.
