Ms perino will get back to the press about the VP---Is VP an entity of the Ex Branch?
my god, she could not answer a simple question.
Today she fell all over herself trying to explain the 'logic"!!



this is june 21:

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/06/20070621-5.html

......Q This is from the House Oversight Committee, this is Waxman's people. The committee says it has learned that over the objections of the National Archives, Vice President Cheney exempted his office from the Presidential order that establishes government-wide procedures for safeguarding classified national security information. The Vice President asserts his office is not "an entity within the Executive Branch."

Is that right? Is his office not an entity within the Executive Branch?

MS. PERINO: John, as much as I'd love to be able to provide you an answer here, I think you've given me something that I haven't seen yet, and I'm going to go back and I'll check it out.

Q Thank you.

2. And how can you be not aware of it? Its been all over the news the last 24 hours
I guess she had her head up Bush's butt, and didn't get a chance to see the news. Why did they send her out on this instead of Snowjob? He would have bs'd it much better.

5. Snowjob looks like he's melting. I think the guy is dying, myself. And he's training the new puppy
to fetch for the master before he does a Greyfriars Bobby and lays down to die.

3. Logic generally doesn't require a shitload of explanation, because, well, it's logical
Of course, when you make up a bunch of convoluted shit and try to pass it off as logical, that's a horse of a different color!!

6. Q Thank you
Stop saying thank you to someone who just told you to shut up and sit down.

Geesh this "it is a matter of respect and decorum" is the margin that this slime operates in.

8. Well, it seems to me...
...that Congress's task is clear. All Executive Branch funding should be immediately "frozen" until we're clear on what branch it is that Cheney's group belongs to. Obviously someone f*cked up somewhere at budget time.

In the meantime, while all funding is "good and frozen", Congress can form some committees, do some studies, talk to the GAO, the CIA, the FBI and assorted other agencies that have nothing to do with this, then maybe they can issue some subpoenas, speak with outrage at a few press conferences. And top it off with a "no confidence" vote against Cheney and his criminals. You know, the regular stuff.

I'm sure we'll have it all hashed out by, oh... say.... January 21, 2009.
