Tony Snow is the biggest asshat....

to ever grace the WH news-briefing-room, or whatever they call it, and that is going some!.

(It seems not to matter what they call anything these past years, because "it" never really has anything whatsoever in common with the words they use to identify "it.")

Which brings us back to: Tony is an asshat of the very worst kind.

Press briefings, these days, go something like this:

Hapless WH presscorps member: Tony, yesterday, the President said that the sky is green. Is that really what he meant to say, Tony? Is that the official position of the White House? (as if a freakin' building has any position on anything)

Snow-job: No, No, you didn't hear what the President said, or he was misinterpreted. Yes, the President did say that the sky is greenish. Now if you weren't such an idiot you would know that the President is always right and in fact the sky is often greenish, especially if there is a tornado in the area or, at times, just after a nuclear blast.

Hapless WH press-corps member: Duh, Duh, did you say nuclear blast?

Snow-job: I wouldn't read too much into that.

Crooks and Liars:

Tony Snow attacked David Gregory last week by calling him a partisan after the ISG report came out. The right wingers pounced on him which was very predictable. Snow gives a partisan answer this morning about the ISG that borders on the surreal.
