White House Press Briefing - Wednesday, November 1, 2006 [CSPAN1 - 12:00pm EST]

The White House Press Office ^ | 11/1/2006 | Tony Snow

[Howlin]

And Suzanne Malveaux said last night on MSNBC that this would be over TODAY............LOL.

I have a question: does Kerry and the press think that EVERYBODY who "misunderstood" Kerry is stupid and a rightwing nut-job? The American Legion? John McCain? Hillary Clinton?

All of them?

[Kaslin]

ABC

[JFC]

Calling now. Thanks for the phone number.

[Txsleuth]

"inappropriate" huh??

What a hard stance she has taken....NOT!!!

She is the queen of NOT taking a stand.

[FOXFANVOX]

Yes, Kerry called Imus and tried to pretend he was withdrawing from campaign appearances before the politicians were able to cancel him. Imus told Kerry to go play at one of his hobbies and NOT speak!

[Starboard]

No sane person could watch this and conclude that the WHPC are anything other than a bunch of JACKALS defending one of their own. The MSM is doing its usual job of running cover for Dims.

Kerry really painted them into a corner this time. The Dims are in full panic mode.

[Mrs.Liberty]

Kerry really painted them into a corner this time. The Dims are in full panic mode.

Yep...It's a great day in America!

[JFC]

Paula,,,,,,,,,, my sons put themselves through college. My son's are middle class, they are going to be paying off school loans forever, So no, you don't have a point!

[LibertyLee]

Q from reporter: Isn't access to higher education limited? Tony: data, more that people have college degreees. You have conflated the cost of higher education...not the cost of higher education...It's a sense of calling. Believe it or not, the volunteers feel a sense of calling. Reporter still B*tching about college board and the cost of higher education: If you're not smart enough to get a merit scholarship...Tony: I'm not going to get myself into the business of interpreting this. I don't think this about more Pell grants. President has increased Pell grant funding...

[Howlin]

You gotta love Imus! He's had enough of Kerry.

The thing is no matter whether Kerry goes or not, HE is going to be the topic; he just wants other people to do his bidding for him!

Hell, let them ALL say the whole country is crazy and a pack of liars.

[JFC]

I don't love Imus, he is only after the win on Tues. He is voting straight Dimocrap. He loved the pr that he got from Kerry calling in to his show today.

[Alissa]

I'm not sure, post what they say to you.

[LibertyLee]

David Gregory: partition...believes Dems have a plan. Tony: you do things on realities on the ground. Phased redployment makes no reference to conditions on the battlefield. You don't walk away from people. We have been training up thousands and thousands of Iraqi troops. The PM is far more assertive about going after terrorists. Hit quickly and precisely. The purpose of this war is not for US to win it but to help Iraq win it. We've been working on political reconciliation. All are important pieces. Phased redeployment means we are trying to get out. Gregory: depends on measurements of poltiical situation: Tony: Biden agrees with us on everything except breaking Iraq into pieces. Ask yourself is there a substantive Democratic plan for dealing with this. Dem leaders haven't said. There are scattered suggestions and no cohesive message on what they would do with Iraq...

[FOXFANVOX]

Additionally, it is the left wing college administrations that are raising tuition (far faster than inflation). Why? Because they can.

Community colleges are beginning to shine in light of today's elite college extravagance.

[dinasour]

If it was supposed to have been a joke, wouldn't the audience have laughed?

There is a longer version from NBC in LA.

Look at the expression on the face of the little moonbat in training. You'd think she just saw her life, umm the election, pass before her eyes.

[Howlin]

You know what this is ALL about: it's the fact that Kerry tried to get a fifth deferrment when he was in college and he HAD to go; he's been trying to make it look like he volunteered to go since then.

He honestly thought (just like Bill Clinton told the lady who worked for the draft board in Arkansas) that HE was too important to go, too smart, had too much to accomplish and he's been resentful ever since. He also had the JFK syndrome, JUST like Clinton; why oh why the Dem candidates always have PSYCHOLOGICAL problems, I do not know, but I know that we have always had to do some "group therapy" as a nation with them for the last 20 years! I'm sick of it.

He is the poorest excuse for a human being I've ever seen.
He is ANGRY and volitale -- if this keeps up, he may really meltdown.
He is finished.

"A weak, divided, squabbling Democrat party less than a week before Election Day."

My birthday is Friday - and this is exactly what I asked for - right size, shape, and color. Thank you Mr. Rove!

[Miss Marple]

JCEccles made an important point this morning.

NO ONE on the democrat side disavowed Kerry's comments yesterday, except for one congressional candidate in Iowa who cancelled Kerry's appearance. NOT ONE.

Ford came out today, and Hillary, saying the remarks were "inappropriate". However, they should have come out YESTERDAY; now it looks like they simply red the polls. Where is Reid? Pelosi? Kennedy? Durbin? AWOL, and we need to be bringing it up at every opportunity.

JCEccles, have you e-mailed this point to anyone? I think it is EXTREMELY important!

[TnMomofTwo]

She said she HOPED it would be over today....poor thing... won't get her wish. LOL

[Kaslin]

The fact is that the Rats are still stuck on VietNam which was their war. They compare everything to VietNam. It is disgusting.
