[FormerRepublican]

3. Talking about all the Bush loser gov't programs - blah, blah, blah...

:puke:

[myrna minx]

4. This should be good.

:bounce:

[Pirate Smile]

5. CNN and MSNBC have it up live for now. Looking for some fireworks,

I'm sure.

[MADem]

6. ON the NIE, right out of the gate!!!!!

If the thing is declassified on that day, then if it was passed on ten days earlier, it was still classified!!!!

Edit....And he falls back to NOT GONNA COMMENT ON AN ONGOING LEGAL PROCEEDING!!!!!

[brook]

12. Scotty needs

a tutu for this tap dance!

[CottonBear]

7. First question is about the leak. n/t

[CottonBear]

9. "Ongoing legal proceeding...no comment on an ongoing legal proceeding..."

[CottonBear]

14. "President has authority to declassify information but he'd never expose a

covert agent."

[PCIntern]

13. Halting, bullshit delivery...

Reminds me of the Jr. High Lies we used to tell each other's parents about what we were doing with their daughters...

Ooops, did I say that?

[oasis]

8. Can't talk about ongoing legal proceedings blah, blah blah

[FormerRepublican]

10. Question to Snotty - you said that day the NIE was released - if that's...

...so then it was classified when leaked. Scotty, blah, blah that was when it was released to the public. Can't comment. President won't compromise national security. Blah, blah.

[CornField]

11. "Pres has the authority to declassify information"

[CottonBear]

17. "...but he'd never expose a (covert) agent..."

[MADem]

15. Shaky voice, he sounds NERVOUS today n/t

[PCIntern]

Pee in his pants nervous...n/t

[MADem]

29. More like POOP in his pants--he is CAUGHT in a lie about the declass

process business!!!!!!!!

BUSTED!!! They aren't letting it go!!!!!!

[CottonBear]

20. He looks like he might throw up. n/t

[VolcanoJen]

16. Scotty: The NIE was a document provided to Congress

It wasn't classified. The accusations flying around the time were wild, so we declassified the NIE to correct the record.

:eyes: :eyes:

[Norquist Nemesis]

The more he pauses, the more you know he's lying!

[pdxmom]

18. Says he can't talk about ongoing investigation and cases, then

proceeds to do just that, with his selective talking points.

[myrna minx]

19. "There were irresponsible accusations made against the Admin.

It was in the public interest to declassify." :rofl:

[VolcanoJen]

21. LOL... Scotty: You're discussing an ongoing legal proceeding

:rofl:

[CottonBear]

24. But he can't talk about...n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

22. Hahahaha....that female reporter just caught him in ANOTHER LIE!

He said the documents were declassified 10 DAYS AFTER they were leaked!

[FormerRepublican]

When was the NIE officially declassified - you said it was officially...

...declassified that day. Scotty: You're talking about an ongoing legal investigation. Blah, blah. You can't separate that question from the legal proceeding.

[Norquist Nemesis]

23. Reporters faces are priceless!!!

They're looking at each other with an obvious :wtf: ?????!!!!

[tabasco]

25. Basically calling Sockie on his lies.

This is good.

[CornField]

26. SLAM!!! Caught in the lie...

[Norquist Nemesis]

27. COVERUP COVERUP COVERUP!!!

They smell it!

[myrna minx]

28. Scottie is dancing around the "declassification" date.

[Norquist Nemesis]

31. "I'll be glad to take a look at what I said"

Dodgeball

[skooooo]

35. He said "declassified" but he ....

.....meant "released." Yeah, right.

[Connie_Corleone]

30. BUSTED!!

Scotty's trying to change the wording of what he said.

[longship]

32. He's peddling as fast as he can.

Backwards!

Stonewall! Stonewall! Stonewall!

BTW, Helen is in the front row.

[pdxmom]

33. They're nailing him totally to the wall. It's very clear that the

president released CLASSIFIED information, if Scotty was telling the truth in his July 18th press briefing.

[VolcanoJen]

34. Scotty: The NIE went through a declassification process...

... it was declassified. But I can't answer the second part of any question because it relates to an ongoing legal investigation.

:wtf:

Reporters are hitting him on "released" vs "declassified."

[Poll_Blind]

36. Pardon my French but they are...

...gang-bang skull-fucking him right there- at least 3 reporters at once!

Deeeeelicious!

PB

[pdxmom]

42. I'm having a ton of fun watching this. n/t

[babylonsister]

43. I'll bet they've just about had it with being lied to. I know I have. nt

[spanone]

37. LYING HIS ASS OFF......

[CornField]

38. Ask him... ask him... "Are you lying today or were you lying then?"

[CottonBear]

39. "I think we're talking past each other a little bit." n/t

[CottonBear]

44. I see Helen next to the blonde lady right now! Wearing purple. n/t

[tabasco]

40. Helen Thomas In The House !!!

Go get 'em baby!!!!!

[MADem]

41. This is HILARIOUS!!!!!!

He is denying the OBVIOUS, caught in a lie, and is SO FULL OF SHIT!!!!!!!

[myrna minx]

50. I KNOW!

"The President believes the leaking of classified info is a very serious matter!" :rofl: Now he's blaming the Dems.

Hammering about Bu$h lying about the leak.

[IChing]

58. OH my god he can't spin this

Senate intelligence report is not even finished

[soothsayer]

45. Helen's got her hand up. Chick next to her is pounding scotty on

the prez saying he hates ALL leaks, so what's the deal with this leak?

[FormerRepublican]

Now he's blaming Democrats....

:puke:

[VolcanoJen]

Martha Radditz: The president has said he is against leaks...

... and will get to the bottom of the leaks, and find out who the leaker is."

Scotty: There's a distinction. Democrats out there refuse to recognize the distinction between a leak and declassified information. Democrats are engaging in a crass political game.

:wtf:

[stopbush]

46. "Democrats engaging in crass politics"

Can you believe the level of BS?

[seabeyond]

152. democrats???? lol lol was libby that put this out, dems havent

done shit, .... yet. well, maybe a little yesterday, but ....

[Debau2005]

47. Damn...

All this spinning in circles is making me dizzy!

[bush_is_wacko]

48. Scotty's responses are hurting my brain! n/t

[qanda]

51. Mine too

Oh, he's spinning, spinning, spinning away. I'm getting dizzy.

[HereSince1628]

49. Stonewall Scotty, leaking is serious there is a distinction here...

Yeah Scotty this wasn't politics as usual, this was desperation politics trying to hide the reality that Bush lied the country into an illegal invasion of Iraq.

[MADem]

52. Scotty just said when BUSH leaks, it is OK, when anyone ELSE does

it's bad....in essence!!!!

Isn't that INCONSISTENT, he is asked? If it is POLITICAL, it's fine????

This is RICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is, for those too young to remember, as good as RATHER V. NIXON!!!!

[Norquist Nemesis]

59. The Imperial President n/t

[MADem]

70. He just REFUSED TO SAY if he LIED in JULY!!!!

He tried to use the ONGOING INVESTIGATION bullshit, but he essentially REFUSED TO SAY IF HE KNEW.

[pdxmom]

53. Did Scotty really just say that it's okay to leak security information

for political purposes??? As long as the President leaks it, then it's okay?

Hopefully, this hypocracy will be all over the national news tonight.

[in_cog_ni_to]

60. YES INDEED! He said that! n/t

[gkhouston]

Yes. So much for keeping America safe

and helping us win the war on terror, eh?

[Maddy McCall]

54. McClellan's BS session demonstrates that this administration....

is done. Stick a fork in 'em.

"I'll be glad to go back and look at that transcript."

OVER AND OVER. "De-classified."

The media is turning on the president.

The right is turning on the right. More and more will come out now.

He's saying that Plame's identity was declassified, and this whole thing is about Dems who fail to know the difference in classified and declassified.

If I weren't politically saavy, I'd still know that he's wrong on this one.

[in_cog_ni_to]

55. OMG...he's saying if the PRESIDENT leaks classified info it's not

classified anymore...period, end of subject.

[Maddy McCall]

It's over for them. Anyone who still gives them an ounce...

of credibility can do so no more.

It's over.

How can ANYONE defend this president anymore?

[soothsayer]

56. Jim axelrod, cbs: so the prez is saying 'if there's a leak I wanna'

know who it is' --- isn't that AT BEST inconsistent if * already knew who was authorized to leak? Is it ok if it's for politcal purposes?

A. If it's in the public's best interest, that's another thing. then spin spin spin about no political pressure on intelligence analysts, blah blah

[Supersedeas]

Isn't it in the public's interest to know when they are being spied upon?

[soothsayer]

103. no, because * hates us for our freedoms

[VolcanoJen]

57. LOL LOL Reporter: "It's ok to declassify and leak for political purposes?"

Scotty: "When it's in the public interest, yes. There were wild accusations being made at the time."

This is unfuckingbelievable!!!!!!!

[myrna minx]

63. This is absolutely amazing.

You know, the bu$h's are always looking out for the best interest of the public! :rofl:

[HereSince1628]

2 memes, Bush has authority, it's part of a legal action.

No matter how much they work him those are going to be the answers.

[Supersedeas]

77. Isn't it a wild accusation to say there is no warrantless wiretapping when

there is?

[jsamuel]

61. Reporter Nailed them: "You said it was officially declassified 10 days aft

er it was leaked to reporters."

BOOOOOM!!! Shows that they only "declassified" it after they leaked it and it became a legal problem.

[Solly Mack]

62. How does Scotty keep from getting whiplash

from all that spinning?


"in the public interest" (yeah- cause the Bush Regime is all about the public interest - you betcha)

[in_cog_ni_to]

64. That reporter is getting PISSED! Scotty won't answer his question.

As usual.

[spanone]

74. Ol Scotty is dancing on the head of a pin. Lying liars lying their lies.

[spanone]

76. Never heard Scotty talk this fast. He must have been up all night

doing his homework with Dickie mentoring him all the way.

[tabasco]

65. Asking about Bush's lies now.

Explain that one Sockie.

[pdxmom]

66. Oops...Scotty just addressed that on-going criminal matter. Guess

that policy only applies when it suits him.

[Norquist Nemesis]

67. ARGH!!! It wasn't the collective intelligence that was leaked

or 'selectively' declassified!!!

[Supersedeas]

101. Portions of the NIE are STILL classified

[VolcanoJen]

68. NBC's Kelly O'Donnell just got the "Ongoing Investigation" smackdown

:rofl:

[libnnc]

69. Tap tap-tippity-tap-tap-ta-tap tap ....

I haven't seen moves like this since I saw Fred and Ginger on the late late movie.

Scotty oughta be wearing spats and carrying a cane...

[IChing]

71. ON going investigation, on going investigation n/t

[myrna minx]

72. LOL---I can't comment on an ongoing investigation!!

:spray:

[soothsayer]

73. scotty splitting hairs about whta was declassified---he says the

NIE thing, not plame, I think.

[MADem]

87. He's damn near HYPERVENTILATING!!!!!!!

He can barely choke the words out....HELEN IS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And he tries to fluff her off, but she ain't having it!!!!


THE PRESIDENT DID NOT KNOW???

He refused to answer!!!!!!!

[tabasco]

75. Sockie's freaking out.

This is GREAT!

[IChing]

89. Misinformation and saying things that are not true

on going legal procedings

[VolcanoJen]

78. Scotty: Some leaks good, some leaks bad.

When the White House leaks information to cover its ass = good

When a NYT reporter writes an article exposing the wiretapping = bad

Democrats are to blame... they don't understand the difference.... they are engaging in crass political games.

[Debau2005]

79. Do you have to take a class

to be able to double speak this well?

[babylonsister]

80. Blame it on the Dems, doncha know. That tune's getting really old,

Snotty. :eyes:

[catabryna]

81. It's sure a good thing I don't play drinking games...

before noon (PT) or I'd be well on my way to being plowed! :rofl:

[MADem]

95. We would all be SHITFACED by now! nt

[myrna minx]

82. Reporter is basically calling him a hypocrite.

How can you call the dems playing "crass Politics" when the NIE was released for political reasons. :rofl:

[Supersedeas]

115. Finally, that reporter needs to be named -- GREAT QUESTIONS deserve

recognition

[soothsayer]

83. He's saying Dems are playing crass politics by refusing to see

the distinction between when bush leaks things to gain politically, and when his illegal wiretapping is exposed. stupid dems.

[stopbush]

84. Helen's up!!!

Asking if idiot son knew that Plame was JW's wife!

[pdxmom]

85. Since they didn't release the total NIE, complete with all the

anti-WMD information, then how was that in the "public interest"?

[Supersedeas]

128. exactly - was this question actually posed to McButterpants?

[Norquist Nemesis]

86. There he's goes again about the "TSP"

GDMF!!!!!!! The "leak" was known to these assholes a whole freaking YEAR before it came out in the NYT! The "leak" was about domestic spying, not the newly-named 'TSP'!!!

[0007]

88. Here we go with Helen. Go go go go go Helen....Scotty is rattled.

[CornField]

90. PR for the Domestic Spying Program... what BS

The Dems are crass for pointing out the Pres is breaking the law -- even if it was the NYT who actually stated it.

The Pres, however, should feel free to lift his leg and leak all over DC and the nation.

[CottonBear]

91. Helen: Did you know Joe Wilson was married to a CIA agent? n/t

[CottonBear]

97. A: "It's an ongoing legal proceeding." LOL! n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

98. and he wouldn't answer that question. n/t

[in_cog_ni_to]

92. Bwahahahahaha! He's like a spinning top!

The Dems are bad, bad, bad for leaking info, but the idiot-in-chief can leak anything he wants. They can leak anything they want to to attack people like Joe Wilson who don't support their agenda.:rofl:.

[Whoa_Nelly]

WTF! "in the public interest..."

released, to declassified...
How the fuck can declassifying the Niger yellow cake information (which was given to the public as a LIE!) be in the public interest to out an active covert operative?

Scotty: I think that was what I was referring to...
You little snot! You know what you are talking about...you KNOW you are dancing and lying. The yellow cake BS was USED for political purposes and was an abuse of exective powers with intent

OH, BTW, America....Valerie Plame, who jus thappenes to be Amb. Joe Wilson's wife, is an active covert operative and there is yellow cake, and...um...and...er...

Now he's attacking the Dems!

[stanwyck]

93. I'm confused. Is he Goering or Goebbels?

I always get them mixed up.
But he's definitely the Bush version of one of those two criminals.
And that's how this whole regime is going to be remembered.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

127. He's baghdad bob! ...

[soothsayer]

94. helen tried to ask did the prez know wilson was married to plame

but scotty gave her the old okey doke (ongoing legal proceeding)

[myrna minx]

96. Did the president know that Joe Wilson was married to a CIA agent before

he read Novak's column?

Scottie: I can't comment on a ongoing investigation.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

99. fox "news" not covering it

[kitkat65]

100. Just watching this makes my head want to explode.

Rhymes with fullsnit

[spanone]

102. Only answering what he 'wants' to. Otherwise ongoing investigation.

This is a bullshit session. I love to watch him squirm. I'd rather see George & Dick squirm.

[stopbush]

104. Asking about credibility!

This is priceless.

"Dems have a credibility problem when they try to suggest..."

Unbelieveable BS from Snot Boy.

[The Witch]

110. the PeeWee Herman defense, as Stephi says:

"I know you are, but what am I?"

[in_cog_ni_to]

105. The Democrats are bad. Not Bush. n/t

[MADem]

106. When up to your ass in hot grease, BLAME THE DEMOCRATS

What unmitigated BALLS!!!!!!!!

[Norquist Nemesis]

Rule #1 revised

They crossed out Bill Clinton and replaced it with "Democrats"

[FormerRepublican]

107. The Democrats did it, the Democrats did it, they're the ones who have...

..an issue... Nothing like finger pointing to try to take the heat off.

[myrna minx]

108. Credibility question.

Scottie---NO it's the DEMOCRATS who have a credibility problem. :rofl:

[tabasco]

109. H. Thomas asks when did President know Plame was undercover>

Sockie refuses to answer because of ongoing investigation. Unbelieveable.

Helen asks the on-point questions and at least Sockie is smart enough to know not to answer.

Just shows that Helen knows what the real issue is. BUSH LIED MANY MANY TIMES ABOUT THIS CRAP AND LIED TO A FEDERAL PROSECUTOR!!

[pdxmom]

111. Carl Cameron is going to give Scotty an out. n/t

[jane_pippin]

112. LOL--oh yeah--everyone else has a credibility problem, not you.

Ok, Scott. :rofl:

It's like listening to a 13 year old who got caught sneaking in after curfew. Disgraceful.

[stopbush]

113. Carl Cameron trying to throw Snotty a liferaft!!

Faux News trying to rewrite the law for Snotty.

[myrna minx]

114. Scottie--the president can do whatever he wants.

the Constitution says so.

[soothsayer]

116. they should ask whether the prez can accidentally declassify stuff

by accidentally shooting off his mouth about a classified program

[oasis]

117. Fox's Carl Cameron lends Scotty a hand by explaining the leak process.

[Norquist Nemesis]

120. Now he's essentially blaming Democrats for aiding and

abetting al Quaeda. :eyes:

[MADem]

130. OOOOH, you are giving aid and comfort to the ENEMY

Them Al Kayda fellers, they watch us CLOSELY!!! It is all HARRY REID's FAULT!!!!!!

He is spinning so fast, the earth may well fall off its' axis!!!!!!!!!

[VolcanoJen]

118. Carl Cameron of FOX now doing the President's bidding

Cameron just read Schumer's comments to Scotty so Scotty could pull out his "crass political game" comment again, and he's tying it into wiretapping leaks, which are bad, but leaking Plame = good.

UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE

[malaise]

136. Scotty's thesis is simple

Buscho can leak anything but Dems and whistleblowers commit treason if they leak. Fugg Buscho. The world is unto them.

[Blue_Roses]

119. he's tanking...

going, going, gone...

[Debau2005]

Here we go!!! TERROR! TERROR! TERROR!

[Norquist Nemesis]

123. Yep! And Democrats are aiding and abetting OBL!

[pdxmom]

121. So the talking point is that the Dems are playing crass partisan

politics and the President is just "informing the public".

[myrna minx]

122. Well I guess the new white house talking point

is "crass polities." :rofl: He is truly disgusting. Now he's bring up war on terra! Look over here! It's the bogyman!!!

[FormerRepublican]

We don't do ANYTHING that damages national security - er, what about...

...Plame?

Crass politics, crass politics, I hate Democrats, they are evil and cause every problem in the world, including those we create!

:puke:

[stopbush]

124. Today's meme: "Crass politics"

Scotty's gettin' pissed and extremely defensive.

[carolinalady]

125. If I were that man, I would go directly to my office, pack up my

pictures and walk out the door, never looking back. Can you imagine what it would be like to put yourself and your credibility on the line everyday in order to pick up his paycheck? This is one job that I agree with the Pres-Most Americans won't do!

[VolcanoJen]

126. Scotty's Daily Meme: CRASS POLITICS CRASS POLITICS!

Democrats are engaging in CRASS POLITICS, ok? Did you all get that?

[tabasco]

129. Bwaaaahahahahaha!! Scare tactics now. Al Qaeda blah blah.

Yeah right! Bush personally outs an important CIA mission. He wasn't very worried about security then.

[Solly Mack]

131. Is Scotty campaigning now? Sounds like it

He helps write the Boy Blunder's speeches doesn't he?

"Our playbook! Terrorists! blah blah blah"

[Just Me]

132. ARRRGGGHHHH! All these freakin' faux "distinctions".

He is so SO SO full of shit!

I just wanna' box that babblers' ears!!! WHAM!!!

[IChing]

133. I have never heard so much double speak from Scotty /crass politics

Which what they did crass politics

[in_cog_ni_to]

134. war on terror! war on terror! war on terror! war on terror!

The Democrats are involved in "crass politics"...ah ha! The new meme talking point for the next week! "CRASS POLITICS" HE'S ALREADY USED THAT PHRASE SEVERAL TIMES. Tune into Limpballs and InSANNITY...listen for it.

[unschooler]

161. The latest polls show the public doesn't trust the repukes on terra.

They've lost their only issue. So sad.

[Ioo]

135. He looks like he is going to cry!

ha ha ha

[FormerRepublican]

137. Scotty basically saying it's OK when the President does it, but no one!

Bush, above the law! (Yeah, right.)

[FormerRepublican]

146. Oh, man - Snotty Scotty is saying "it depends on what the definition of...

...is is."

He's going round and round in circles, and going nowhere.

[jsamuel]

138. He is sooo RED today...

hehe

[Janice325]

139. Good gravy!

I wonder how much longer Scotty's health is gonna be able to take all this. His blood pressure must be about to blow.

[pdxmom]

140. The public has a right to know whatever the administration wants

us to know, and not to know whatever the Democrats want us to know.

Scotty is saying that letting the public know that the government is violating the 4th Amendment of the Constitution isn't in the public interest.

[Supersedeas]

147. Sounds like that's what he is saying to me

[CornField]

141. THREAD 2 OPEN

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x872766

[lldu]

155. played the "WE ARE A NATION AT WAR!!!!!" card n/t

[Gregorian]

142. So he outted a CIA agent in OUR BEST INTEREST.

He's spying on us for OUR BEST INTEREST.

Brings to mind that tune by Suicidal Tendancies.

[kitkat65]

143. What a lame argument about leaking Plame for public interest

Trying to make a disctinction between leaking the phone tapping and leaking Plame. Trying to say that leaking Plame was to keep the public safe.

She was part of a network that tracked WMDs for fuck sake! That whole network is now destroyed!

[Norquist Nemesis]

150. Funny thing is...it's all connected.

[Norquist Nemesis]

144. LOL! That's not right. What I said is what I said and you ought

to go back and listen to what I said. :freak:

[Viva_La_Revolution]

145. what I said is what I said and you outta listen to what I said!

:rofl: X 10

[IChing]

153. on going legal proceding, on going legal proceding..the sky is falling n/t

[carolinalady]

148. What I said is...pause...what I said and you ought to try to listen to

what I said!

:crazy:

[MADem]

149. This is HORRIBLE!!! He's like a pudgy RON ZIEGLER!!!!!

That smell....it is familiar to me!!! This really feels like WATERGATE!!!!!!!!

[myrna minx]

151. He is hyperventilating

and acting childish. This is unbelievable.

[tabasco]

159. It really is unbelievable.

I cannot believe how far this Nation has sunk.

[VolcanoJen]

154. We are a nation at WAR, that's why the President stands against...

... the leaking of classified information.

This is seriously UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE.

[tatertop]

163. Scotty beat us up. He was snickering with delight

Lies have become the truth.
Scotty knows the Democrats are too spineless
to stand against Bush.
He mumbles bullshit and it quells the masses.
This is very sad to watch.

[Norquist Nemesis]

156. "We are at War"!

:puke: This that and everything else is at risk...funny how he left the Constitution out of that list.

[madokie]

157. oh but this is a different kind of war the snot nosed kid say

[Emit]

158. This is absolutely rediculous!

I think all the reporters should just get up and walk out and boycott these gaggles. It's a f-cking circus.

[FormerRepublican]

160. Scotty is a total waste of space. He says nothing, just hems and haws.

[HereSince1628]

162. I'd love to know if the President can distinguish between national securit

y and _his_ polidigal inderests (as Scotty would say)

Seems to me that is a fair condemnation of this administration. It can't.

It also cannot separate ideological interests of radical political and religious elements from national security interests.

[CottonBear]

164. We are a nation addicted to oil...no short term solutions...

that's why we passed comprehensive energy legislation last year...President wants us to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of energy..."

"...BECAUSE we're addicted to oil...must address ROOT CAUSES..." (he's making strange noises when he speaks now..he is making no sense at all...)

[LeftCoast]

165. Locking. Please continue discussion on thread 2
