Tony Snow Gets Into It With Harry Smith at CBS Wver the Atty Scandal

By: John Amato on Thursday, March 22nd, 2007 at 11:55 AM - PDT

Snow said Harry sounded like a partisan which is one of the worst things a guy like Snow can say to a reporter. Smith reads back Snow's old column and Snow goes off again…

Smith ends the segment with a disgusted look on his face. I'm sure you know the kind….

3. Harry was so frustrated with him in the end..
The heavy sigh and adjusting himself in his chair because he wanted to go through the screen and grab Tony's neck.

4. I love the ending.
Snow says something about how people want to get the truth, wouldn't you?

And then Smith responds in a disgusted tone, "You bet."

I don't think Harry thought he was getting the truth from Snowjob Tony.

6. Geez, Snow is more and more nauseating each day
I watched Bolton on The Daily Show the other night, and I can't help but still be amazed at the complete ease with which they lie. Same thing with Delay on Hardball yesterday. I mean, Chris Matthews read a few sentences verbatim from Delay's book, and Delay denied it said that!!!

I mean, the level of lying - when what they are lying about is in black and white and on video (Cheney's "the insurgency is in the last throes" for example) - is truly astonishing.

They must all plug in to the same source at night to recharge and get their talking points pounded into them.

Honestly, they are more and more looking like and acting like The Borg. Geesh.

I've never watched Harry Smith, but his intolerance of the BS was refreshing in this clip. Good for him!

13. After six years, I'm still astonished by their pathological lying.
And probably even more astonished that their followers still believe. In particular, one of my wingnut neighbors who would believe DeLay, rather than Tweety as he was reading verbatim. Must be a pretty easy way for them to go through life - never doubting, never questioning.

Last night on Scarborough Pat Buchanan kept using "misinformation," while the woman from Salon and some guy named Meko (Neko?) kept muttering "lying." And the guy from Media Matters blasted that prick Terry Holt over the "Al Gore said he invented the Internet" crap. I'm hearing "lies" and "lying" and practically cheering at my TV (sad!). The "lying liars" are being called out, and I'm hoping more than just the choir is tuning in.

10. They can;t have the tapes!!
Oh, that was 35 years ago.

I love that exchange at the end:

Snow: People would love to have the truth, wouldn't you.

Smith: You bet.

14. Freeps believe anything
it's an amazing quality to the freep.
Total gullibility... especially when their self-interest is involved.
Greedy little fuckers aren't they/

16. Busholini's generous offer is:
His folk will testify in secret, not Under Oath without any taping or transcripts of their testimony.

Wow! That is an astound ly generous offer, ain't it?

19. I got it to play. Holy Shit!!! "The executive branch doesn't have to do anything"
Honestly, Bush thinks he is king and he is surrounded by people who are saying, yes, what can we do for your, your majesty?

22. Had to K&R this one.
The snow melt video is a classic. Snow, Bush's favorite flake, was on the ropes and blathering like he's never blathered before! I had to tune in and watch it again. Could the MSM finally get it?

23. Wow, Smith's disgust with Snow was unmistakable!
He did a great job, imo, and Snow looked like the idiot shill he is.

Thanks for posting the link, it is a must-watch!

27. They actually cut that off a little early.
I was watching that this morning.
Tony says "People would like to get the truth. Wouldn't you?"
Harry says: "You bet. YOU OWE IT TO ME."

28. I don't think I've ever seen Harry Smith give a look like he did at
the end, followed by "You bet" which was in answer to, "I think the AMerican People would like to get the truth, wouldn't you?"

LOL. What irony.
