"And if I expect you to do right by us, you have every right to expect that I'll do right by you."

Mr. Snow may have set his expectations too high.

I think the Clintonian apology non-apology "I'm sorry that you're a biased, liberal, moron" would have been more appropriate.

I'm not sure why you are apologizing for telling the truth. Only the press themselves think they are professional.

But how was it not partisan?

".. And I've thought a lot about that, and that I was wrong. So I want to apologize and tell you I'm sorry for it..."

I do not believe Tony does not think David Gregory is not a partisan. He is just saying this to lower the temperature in the Press Room. It may be the right move to keep the attention on the material Tony put forward and not a personality and ideological conflict.

In the 18th or early 19th century this episode could have had a happy ending. Gregory would have challenged Snow to a duel. One of them would have won.

That is class! (And, BTW, I don't think David Gregory has class.)

What I really like about the apology, is that Gregories partisanship now gets more air time, and more people will stop to think, is Gregory parisan?

Tony Snow is the coolest! Now that Rummy is gone, He is the best that is left in the Whitehouse.

I watched the presser. Tony was all class. He was right when he said Gregory was partisan. We all know that. But Tony has a responsibility that he takes seriously, which Gregory does not.

I wonder what was really behind this.

Tony's job was never in jepordy, perhaps he did this to save Gregory's job.

I hope he does not make it a habit to do this every time some diva gets his undergarments in a bind.

Forget it Tony, this man isn't nice and he has no soul. Maybe he is congenial away from the camera. So what does that tell you?

Mr. Gregory, I've thought a lot about this and I'm convinced that "partisan" was the wrong word to describe you, and anyway one word is not enough. I should have said "vicious reptilian left-wing MSM scumbag attack dog" and I would have made a good start."

There, fixed it..........

Gregory should apologize to the remainder of the human race for being an insufferable, mincing,leftist twit.

Tony Snow is a better man than I could ever be.

I'd likely spit in Gregory's face, and then challenge him to a duel if he ever gave me the grief that he has given Tony.

Gregory is a professional a$$hole.

Man bites dog.

Snow apologizing to Gregory is a lot like a wallet
theft victim apologizing to the thief for not having
more money in the wallet....JJ61

Tony's a class act, but I'd prefer a more confrontational White House (and press secretary).
