So Tony Snow had cancer. We already know that.

[Gabi Hayes]

Wolf said it was a "heartwrenching moment" at his first news conference.

oh. OK. and just how is the fact that he had cancer....."News?" Sorry, but....



anybody surprised they'd start out like this?

could they be any more transparent?

what next?

trapped kitties?

[KyndCulture]

1. Planted question

clear as a skyblue winter day.

[Kikosexy2]

2. like Alito's wife..

camera...action...and cry on cue!

[Gabi Hayes]

6. don't tell me he CRIED!?!

how low will they stoop?

how much time does he think that buys him?

is he going to preface every answer to "Hey, Tony, how come the president wants to send thousands of National Guard troops to the borders when he cut funding for the same amount of border patrollers?" with, "But, but, I had CANcer! 911!"

[Gabi Hayes]

3. Here's your cancer, Tony. Maybe you should seek treatment for THIS:

4. I still don't know when it became proper to discuss your personal

health with others.

5. The Racist is Looking for Sympathy and Understanding?

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.... come on everyone. Let's give the Nazi an awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

[Drum]

7. OK....

Let me get the disclaimer outta the way first off: The big C is no laughing matter, 'nuff said about that!)

However, I saw this Press event here (my first time streaming CSpan, what a gift.)

My question is this:
OK Tony Snowjob, that gotcha through today, but what about every other day you've gotta get up there? You've had a coddled transition into this job, so cut out the teary stuff (and the tar-baby refs.)

[Gabi Hayes]

no kiddn.....I was told once that I HAD cancer. Over the phone, by

someone I didn't even know. from the hospital where I'd been tested. then they told me a few hours later that they'd mixed my name up with somebody else

I hadn't even the time for it to sink in before they called back to tell me they'd made a "mistake"

that was fun

[Drum]

20. Dayum!

Glad those were not your results!

Frightening stuff, and unfortunately so many lives have been affected by cancers...we just cannot joke about it.

Glad you're OK, Gabi. :D

[Gabi Hayes]

22. thanks....I think I'm about to......WEEP!

I knew when I posted originally that it might seem insensitive, but I was too PO'd about that weaselly hypocrite to care. didn't want to spend the time coming up with a suitable explication about proper perspective on those who have/had/know cancer up close, cause who doesn't, at this point

what was that Joe Jackson song?

''there's no cure, there's no answer....''

well...what's the cure/answer to this WH cancer?

[Imagine My Surprise]

8. Doesn't even register THAT much on mine

[Gabi Hayes]

9. so much for this thread.....

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1208653

great read. says it all for me

[OldLeftieLawyer]

10. Did you ever think

you'd find yourself rooting for a disease?

heh heh heh

[Gabi Hayes]

11. is he going to do like Fred Sanford every time he gets a tough question?

'cept, instead of grabbing his chest, he's going to bend over and grab his ass? love to see that....

he did have ass cancer, right?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

12. Prostate

Not rectal. Or colon.

I mean, really. If we're going to have the assgrab, I need to get the camera.

[Gabi Hayes]

13. close enough. same route

didn't Kerry have prostate cancer?

did he EVER weepy weep to the press about it?

can you imagine what they'd have done to him if he brought it up?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

14. Probably call it "a Muskie moment"

which was something I heard come out of Snow's maw as I flipped channels today.

He's a real class act, that one. Definitely got it going on, that Mr. Ass does.

[Gabi Hayes]

16. to whose Muskie moment was he referring? his own?

and, what's the deal, from other thread, about the timing of said cancer?

if it's several years past, WTF is he doing bringing it up for now, unless he had a relapse?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

18. Just what I saw, and

that's what I'm asking. Did he have a relapse?

I think they're shameful.

Root for the disease.

[Hubert Flottz]

17. Just a matter of time till he catches the Hong Cong Dong, over at

the Watergate at the GOP strip poker games.

[Gabi Hayes]

19. HAAAAA....that's what we called it in college!

we used to go into the rooms of guys that had it, and try to catch it so we could get out of going to class.

[devilgrrl]

15. What a shame that the misadministration couldn't care less about cures...

but then again, righties tend to step into action when bad shit effects them personally. :sarcasm:

[Cha]

21. That didn't stop him

from waking up and not lying anymore, did it?
