McClellan, today at 12:30 Eastern. Churls Gone Wild.
I'm guessing he'll slowly rub himself over the CAFTA vote, then rub himself a little more over how Roberts will interpret the Constitution and not "legislate from the bench," then Helen Thomas will ask him about Rove and he'll tell her that he's already responded and can't answer questions about an ongoing investigation, then he'll rub himself a little more over how we're spreading freedom 'n' hope to those wacky Muslim bastards who only understand an ideology of fear and hatred, NOT the ideology of hope and freedom that our beloved president, God's Little Chosen Prince Baby Jesus Bush is spreading. Then he'll tell us how the economy is strong and getting stronger, and how the president's tax cuts are stimulating the economy and creating jobs, and how we've seen 200 gazillion new jobs created in the last 30 minutes.

TUNE IN and see if I'm right.

1. It is not easy...
All of us here are clear thinking individuals.

It drives me nuts to hear him get away with not saying anything substantial.

Why don't they verbally piledrive the little twerp from the top ropes?

Les seems to get in a dig at times, Helen does her thing.

Are they afraid of being banned from the room?

2. Sorry but
Of all the Bushies who repeat the same old crap over and over, he is the only one who actually makes me risk my head exploding. Even Bush doesn't drive me round the bend as much as Scotty the Duck

4. I'll definitely do that.
I may not be here for the live broadcast and play-by-play, but I will post the transcript later today in GDP as soon as it's available from the White House Web Site.

11. Scotty won't acknowledge the finger...
won't dignify with an answer :P

"You know the way the president acts, and it's unfortunate if someone is portraying it that way"

Yeah, Scott, we've seen him flip the bird and call reporters "big time" assholes. So we wouldn't be surprised to see him do it again.

12. Come on, ask... "Did the president order Karl to shred documents?"
Instead we have learned that Islam is a religion that teaches peace, and that we advancing freedom and democracy (and freedom, freedom and more freedom) in the Middle East.

15. I'm not preaching anything - those are Brother Scotty's words...
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 12:28 PM by ticapnews
and he was apparently quoting the president.

Not that they actually believe it, but it sounds good for the cameras...

17. No problem :)
I'm just incredibly tired, and sick of the recent flame wars on here. Plus the little battle I'm fighting in another thread about "Over There." I'm a little defensive right now. I figured you were being sarcastic (since I almost always am as well:) )but wanted to make sure...

21. Short answer: Because realplayer sucks :p
It didn't make my computer stop, it just discontinued the feed and then couldn't find it again. Something's up at the White House, but I doubt it's sinister. Just probably overloaded because of the number of people who are suddenly interested in watching Scotty's daily briefings.
