The White House Briefing With Tony Snow --Thurs, 5/25/06

C-Span3 ^ | 05/25/2006 | Tony Snow

[Bahbah]

I don't think you need to apologize, LL. These things are always iffy because circumstances change. I'd rather have a false alarm than miss the event. I think most will probably feel that way.

[ken5050]

FYI..Tony Snow will be on with Rush after the brief..

I'd rather have a false alarm than miss the event.

No kidding!

I'm sure it's going to happen still. Just hope it's still going on spam3.

Thanks...So that you all can continue to enjoy whatever you were doing, I'll keep monitoring and I WILL RE-PING you if I get DEFINITE evidence of the briefing. Be advised Rush has announced he will be on either at the end of the second hour (between 1:30 and 2 EDT or between 2 and 3 EDT). There is the usual Rush thread going at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1638124/posts?page=127 This has links to stream Rush if you can't get him locally. If anyone hears anything definitive and I HAVEN't posted it, please FReepmail me...

Ditto what Bahbah said....better early than not a all.

But, at least you have the thread going! Thanks.

[Edit35]

...Tony was going to be on his show at the top of the second hour ...

I almost feel sorry for Tony Snow.

He takes this WH press job and the first major issue for the White House is a major loser with the American people.

In fact, all the poise and intellect in the world won't help Tony persuade the American people that the White House isn't lying thru its teeth on this immigration amnesty issue.

Tony will certainly help on all other issues, including the criminal leak NSA and the WOT issues, but on immigration he is facing a lost cause.

At least I hope it is from the WH perspective.

[LibertyLee]

Mojo, give Tony a listen. He's not going to be saying anything he didn't say on his own show long before he thought of joining the WH. SO what you'll be hearing will not only be Administration policy but a lot of it will be pure Tony. He has some good arguments.

[LibertyLee]

For those of you who love Sen. Cute as a Button (Jeff Sessions(R-Al) in speaking on the immigration bill on C-Span2.

[HonestConservative]

Thanks very much for the ping. I will be posting a no-frills version myself when the time comes, unless and until I can steal dinasour's and other's work!

Missed it, got back from PT a bit late. But will enjoy the replay.

God bless you!

For those of you who love Sen. Cute as a Button

Unless you are Dana Milbank, how could you not. Sessions just now pointed out that, if they were serious about enforcement, they would have voted for the Isakson amendment. That tells you all you need to know.

[4woodenboats]

Beat me to it, LOL. Sessions Rocks, wish the WA State RINO Party would give us someone like him to get behind this November.

[rwa265]

Maureen Dowdy probably not too fond of him. :-)

[LibertyLee]

You didn't miss him HC...he'll be on Rush (probably in the 2-3 hour EDT). Rush had said he would be on "after the briefing". We saw an announcement on the CSPAN Main page and then I saw a confirmation on the WH. So I went ahead, dinasour not being around...But it now appears I may have jumped the gun, because the reference is now down from C-Span and the WH is always a little vague between televised and non-televised gaggles. We really have to get Tony to publish these schedules!

[LibertyLee]

I just hope (sigh) that if there IS a bill, it will address BICE reform. I really think that would help and it's doable (in that even I have an idea how to do it)...

[LibertyLee]

As a former WA stater, who is running against Maria Cant-vote-very-Well?

[goodnesswins]

Mike McGavick.....protege of Slade Gorton....former Safeco Exec....

[rwa265]

I think dinasour is around but may be busy at work.

Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, things are slow at my office. I have the three C-Spans on the right side of my screen, Rush on the WKRC stream, and going back and forth between this and the Rush thread.

O boy, McCain is on C-Span2. Back to mute.

[LibertyLee]

Oh, Slade oh yes...I remember him well. Is McGavick as wimpy?

[LibertyLee]

Thanks, I have 2 sources...my XM and my computer here at work, so I keep switching things around and my hands are full, and occasionally WORK does come and interfere....

[4woodenboats]

McGavik, who emulates McCain, and recently offered keeping Iran out of the world soccer league as a deterrant to keep amahdinejad from seeking nukes and the rise of the 12 Imam. speaking of McCain, he is now whining on CSPAN2 that once we legalize the iilegal aliens, they won't be eligible for earned income tax credit under this bill.

If McCain has his way, he will turn this "reform" into welfare for 12 million mexicans. Time to send a huge STFU to McCain IMO.
