Okay, so Chertoff is out touting his full body scanners. Which, heh, he is selling.
Thus he must be nice to the current admin for want of the contract, and nice to the prior admin because, duh, he was part of it.
And I love that softball question by Gregory...I paraphrase...
...”Do you think that the fact that the only way Al-Queda can wage an attack is by finding these losers? Isn’t that fact alone an indicator of how sucessful we’ve been avoiding attack?”
Well damn, the WH itself must have phoned that one in.
As for Janet Incompetano....they are out in full force in her defense. I can see the scene now.
“Mr. President if you don’t get folks out defending me over that “system worked” sound byte, so help me God, I’m going to hold a press conference and inform the public that it was Rahm, approved by you, who gave me this sound byte. What’ve I got to lose? I’ll probably get fired anyway. Save my reputation, and let me resign to be with my family.”
lol, good points, Fishtalk. Gregory asked about “profiling” based on ethnicity or sumfin’.....did you catch anyone’s response to that one? (I missed their answers)
“Hey E.J...., Rahm,
Lookit, we almost got that contract for your wife, er, for the company in yer wife’s name. Just need one more congress critter on our side.
Anyway, could you maybe go on MTP and mention how the best thing that happened to us is Dick Cheney coming out and opening his mouth...how he made it all look political and gave us an edge?”
“Gee, Rahm, that Cheney quote really hurt you guys. For me to say that would be a big lie. Perhaps if you increased that contract by $100K and another year?”
“No prob...”
Losers? Like this guy with the bomb in his briefs who was living in a $4 million+ London Condo?
Wake up and smell the crap you are shoveling NBC! These are not "lone wacko nutcases" but seriously dangerous people.
