Crowley is having a press conference? Now its about his 15 minutes. . .

[wndycty]

. . .Gates doesn't need to relish his 15 minutes, he will be on the national scene for a much longer time.

[Drunken Irishman]

1. What's he saying?

[EFerrari]

2. I hope this guy got a look at what gracious means today. n/t

[blm]

4. That's what I think...and, I'm glad he's having a press appearance. No doubt Obama is fine with it,

too.

[JI7]

3. what for and when ?

[alsame]

5. 7:30, according to Tweety on MSNBC. nt

[Drunken Irishman]

6. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and expect him to say nice things about Pres. Obama.

We'll see, though.

[geek tragedy]

7. More likely he's going to try to inflame the situation. n/t

[Drunken Irishman]

8. We'll see...

My bet is he doesn't. But who knows how these people think.

[Bleacher Creature]

10. Maybe, but it would make him look awfully petty if he did that.

I expect him to be very complimentary of the President.

[geek tragedy]

12. You underestimate the ego of cops. n/t

[emilyg]

30. He didn't.

[AspenRose]

9. Is he on?

Details pls

[EFerrari]

11. Please if anyone finds a link, would you post it?

I turned on Dobbs, ( :puke: ) but he didn't play the actual event.

[Drunken Irishman]

13. It's on MSNBC.

[EFerrari]

15. Thanks. I don't get MSNBC so will have to see it on line. n/t

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. His 15 minutes are up

[alsame]

16. He and Gates are planning another meeting to talk. They want

to look forward. No apologies were made during the meeting with POTUS.

It was cordial. They toured the WH together as one group with their families.

Conversation with POTUS and VPOTUS are private, he won't discuss.

He and Gates agreed to disagree about the incident.

[Drunken Irishman]

17. Well that press conference was a whole lot of nothing.

[AspenRose]

18. I predict he will be on Faux at some point.

[Drunken Irishman]

19. Of course, Matthews and his gang think it was the best thing since sliced bread.

[alsame]

22. Tweety just said

'a star is born'. He has a future in politics, Gov. Patrick had better look out.

I think Tweety felt another tingle up his leg. :rofl:

[DCBob]

20. I thought Crowley was ok in the presser. He had nice comments about Prez Obama.

Overall a positive.

[eleny]

21. Tweety and guests said "A Star is born"

And how Gates has a future in politics if he wants it since he was so suave and poised. Tweets said he was better than politicians act at press conferences.

Oy vey.

[wildflower]

25. Did they say that about Gates or Crowley?

I'm sorry, I'm confused as I don't have access to a TV at the moment. Was Gates at the press conference?

[alsame]

27. Crowley - they were gushing over him and his

press conference. The Union Rep and (I think) his attorney were also present.

Gates wasn't there.

[wildflower]

28. Oh, okay. Thanks!

:hi:

[jenmito]

23. "Wow! He's the next Susan Boyle!"

:eyes:

[falcon97]

24. I fell off my chair when I heard that.

Even hit my head on the way to the floor. Didn't Susan Boyle have some sort of mental break, at least briefly?!?!

[jenmito]

29. Yup...

she sure did! They sound ridiculous praising Crowley like he's the best thing since sliced bread!

[falcon97]

31. Especially because he really didn't

say much of anything. Well, he did repeat "cordial" a lot.

[jenmito]

32. But...

he was the BEST according to Chris Matthews and co. He's really biased when it comes to Irish cops.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

33. ...and racist ones!! n/t

[Sugarcoated]

26. I love what he said about Joe

And i love that it drives the hate jocks crazy-insane that he's not turning around and demanding apologies.

[bullwinkle428]

34. The GOP has found its next "Joe the Plumber"!

Back to snaking porcelain bowls for you, Joe - maybe Sarah P. has a clog that's in need of a fixin'!

[FrenchieCat]

35. He said that Obama was an interesting man, someone who is just like a regular guy,

and someone he respects a great deal. He said it at the very end of the press conference, when he was asked 2 questions at one time, but answered the woman who asked what he thought of the President.

Good. :)
