[Norquist Nemesis]

5. It's hard to keep up today!

:popcorn:

[Norquist Nemesis]

6. Thar's them buzzwords: accommodating, extraordinary insight

:eyes:

[Norquist Nemesis]

8. Ed Henry: Why is there a gap?

Snow: I dunno. Ask them!

[antonialee839]

11. What kind of answer is that?

[npincus]

9. hammering on the gap

[Norquist Nemesis]

10. Snow: The President has NO recollection of this

[radfringe]

36. ahhh, those pesky problems with memory.... again

[Norquist Nemesis]

12. Oh, it's an "interview" of them

asking now about issuing subpoenaes

Snow: The moment supboenaes are issued, it means they've rejected the offer.

[seafan]

13. "Tony, how would taking a transcript be 'a political spectacle'??"

Snow: Blah, blah, spin, spin, ........................................

[jannyk]

14. Snow - big difference between authorizing subpoenas

and issuing them.

[Norquist Nemesis]

15. Snow: They've an obligation to find out what the "Truth" is

(as he mentally snickers)

[antonialee839]

18. I wonder who will be the first to make snowjob eat

his words, with regards to his views on Clinton's admin. officials back in the day.

[doublethink]

16. MSNBC Too!

For how long I don't know.

[annabanana]

17. C'mon!! Ask him why they WON'T take an oath to tell the truth??

[antonialee839]

23. Rove had to visit Fitzy 5 times before telling

some kind of truth.

[Norquist Nemesis]

19. Staying on message: 'We're the good guys making the offer!'

'We're being completely accommodating, we're reaching out! Making a good-faith offer!'

Back to the gap!

[seafan]

20. Tony: "If subpoenas are issued, that means our offer is off the table."

So THERE!


We're really frightened, Tony.

[Norquist Nemesis]

24. Specifically he said: "If they're issued, then our offer's been rejected"

Putting it all on the Dems as "playing politics"

[seafan]

31. I'll yield to you on this. I'm still dizzy! n/t

[npincus]

21. "we made them an offer they can't refuse"

[riderinthestorm]

22. Can we get an "official" thread going? There's multiples happening

[jannyk]

25. Q - even presidents have testified, what would make this

a political circus? Snow - ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!

[Norquist Nemesis]

28. He's desperately looking ot find Les in the crowd...

[Norquist Nemesis]

26. Tony now hypnotizing the press corps

three minutes till snowball q&a

[annabanana]

27. Did you see the face he made when someone suggested

that Presidents have testified before, "Why would this be more of a circus?"
His eyes almost exploded (I wonder if he practiced that?)

[jannyk]

29. Snow - the effort is to single out individuals not get to truth.

[npincus]

30. he's a smoooooth motherf*cker

[Norquist Nemesis]

32. Tony, it looks like an impasse is in the making an.... Snow: Let me respond

to that an then I'll let you finish you question. (Is the WH going to threaten Dems?)

[jannyk]

33. Press are refering to Watergate lol

[Norquist Nemesis]

34. Q: Was a crime committed Snow: *rolls eyes*

[blogslut]

35. The press ain't lettin up

Tony's getting testy

[Norquist Nemesis]

37. GOOD! As well they should

There's that "extraordinarily generous offer on our part" again.

[seafan]

38. FOXNEWS has eaten out Tony Snow's soul. n/t

[antonialee839]

39. Snow: Do you have a transcript

of the conversation we had in the corner the other day?

[antonialee839]

40. Is he for real?

[radfringe]

43. not yet

but give me a couple of minutes and I'll have it transcribed off my secret decoder recorder ring... lol

[blogslut]

41. Hey, Tony!

Boo!

[Bluerthanblue]

42. "Why do you issue transcripts of press confrences?" i love it!!! eom

[jannyk]

44. Snow - you have all this data and you'r haggling over

having a transcript??

[Norquist Nemesis]

45. Go Ed Henry!!!

'You keep calling these interviews. Congress wants testimony. Why not a transcript?'

Snow: I'm going to turn this back around. You have all of this data and you're arguing over an interview? (Looks disbelievingly)

[radfringe]

47. if we could sit in on the INTERVIEW

we would make our own transcript...

[Norquist Nemesis]

51. That's the problem: They're trying to frame the WH as the upstanding

honorable guys and even before these "interviews" they're saying that Dems will come out and lie about what was said. Of course, there's no record to prove it, only the word of Bushetals.

[Norquist Nemesis]

46. Snow scrambling to throw out a partisan analogy

Using Schumer as target in example

[antonialee839]

48. Snow: We're making the documents available

Of course there's a huge date gap. Twit.

[seafan]

49. Tony still thinks his guys have the upper hand with *their offer*.

This is a painfully sad commentary for America.

[jannyk]

50. Snow -public is tired of partisan spectacles - americans

would like to see this town acting in a 'functional' way.

[Norquist Nemesis]

53. You can say that again! Mr. Partisan Spokeshole Supremo!

[blogslut]

What makes these people different?

Who was the reporter that asked that? I lover her!

[antonialee839]

52. Tony sure didn't feel that way back when Clinton

was president

[jannyk]

54. Q - why don't they have to take an oath - regular people

have to take oaths - this makes them seem like an elite class - why doesn't the rule apply to them?

[blogslut]

55. LOL! The EGO!

= The Extraordinarily Generous Offer

Q: About the "Extraordinarily Generous Offer" that will from now on be referred to as the "EGO"...


Awesome

[antonialee839]

56. Oh eat your own words snowjob.

[Bluerthanblue]

57. Does Carl Rove have a private e-mail address at rnc??? (snow will find out) yeah, sure-

don't hold your breath-

[blogslut]

58. that was a yummy question

Who was that British lady reporter?

[blogslut]

59. The intriguing question category

Q: If the prez's peeps can't testify because it hurts the prez's ability to have good counsel...and then you say the prez wasn't informed on this USA mess, then how is questioning those peeps protected by executive privelege?

My bad synopsis

Sure stumped Tony

[Spazito]

60. Ed Henry just nailed Snow!

He brought out the lie. How can the President have been out of the loop, with no knowledge of what happened yet the WH is saying the President has the right to keep his advice secret. If the President didn't get advice on this, why does the push to keep the advice information from Congress and the public? WTG Mr. Henry!

[Bluerthanblue]

61. "..The president has a FERTILE mind..." now there is

a left handed compliment for you- my manure pile keeps our garden growing very well-

geez, Barbara and her 'beautiful' mind, and * with his fertile one-

oh my word...
