OMG the white house briefing today

Post by tamra »

Scott McClellan was in the hot seat. LMAO

almost one reporter after another called him a liar and stated point blank they were lied to and they couldn't go to americans and vouch for him, "carry his water" and other statements directly related to lying.

the reporters also pointed out that Scott stood on that same podium and made false statements previously, but McClellan tried to do bullshit damage control which made it worse because the reporters were like deer in headlights like "is he fucking kidding me? what crack IS he smoking?"

DAMN IT'S COMICAL AND GOOD!!!! turn on CNN now if you can. reporters are finally showing some backbone!!! and of course, this is on CNN, Fox or Faux won't show this obviously, but will put a spin on it later, I'm sure. :lol:

*** oh and most interesting question asked by a reporter (dang, I know his face and first name David, but keep forgetting his last name) was "don't you think your credibility is at stake w/the American people now?" McClellan responds with 8-o "but I've built a good relationship w/you (meaning the reporter)" who responded with a shocked look, "but I'm not talking about *me*, I'm talking about the american people", and that set it off with the other comments like "look we're not covering for you..."

chile I feel like Miss Bonita Butrelle from In Living Color. :lol: but this is historic because shyat is starting to unravel.

astonamous,
I hope to God so, because it was priceless and damn I miss my TIVO option, so am pissed because. oooooh to have played that back. :lol:

it was basically cornering a rat and the reporters were trying to get a simple answer not related to the case, but related to honesty and credibility. of course McClellan dodged by using the case as reasons to not answer.

and then tried to use personal relationships w/reporters for them to drop it. the reporters were blank faced, but kept pushing Spanky, oops, I mean Mcclellan. and one reporter w/a "I'm so tired of this shit look on his face" said something like "but I don't know you" followed by bam, bam, bam, now where's the answer, beeeotch. it started right after Rosa's funeral, an in progress meeting.

I checked for the video on http://www.crooksandliars.com - Crooks and Liars', but since they didn't have it, I found it at the http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases ... 31-3.html# - White House site.'. Insert your own "White House/Crooks and Liars joke." There is a link to the video on the right side of the page. I'm watching it now. It's just getting good.

Dara,
8-o uh oooh, if it's on the white house site only, better have the CIA or FBI check it out to make sure it hasn't been altered :lol:

actually, doubt it could be altered w/stuff omitted. there were far too many reporters there jumping on the Scott-tissue-man -- and it was long and hot. I felt the heat all the way in my living room. and if things are left out, CNN will throw the whole thing on the air again. :lol:

and parts and pieces have been aired on CNN throughout other stories, making the situation embarassing.

deepseas,
]:o( THEY ARE NOT SHOWING THE REPORTERS FACES!!! THAT ALONE WAS PRICELESS!!!! I hope CNN throws up their full version, because reporters were looking dead at him w/some looks that said it all, like "beeeotch, who do you think you're talking to? a fool??"

astonamous,
yeah but this video was from 1 person w/1 camera angle. :( you couldn't even see the close up of what looked clearly like watery eyes of Scott-tissue-man (get it, he wipes others' ass clean, hahahahaha -- dang crickets AGAIN!!! tough room). b.b

I think CNN should throw up the whole thing AGAIN with all images of each reporter on primetime. and these are very familiar press faces. after Dan Rather lost his job over ill-fated info, they're not about to get themselves into a similar trap.

the reporters clearly looked frustrated, as if "ok joke's over, we're not laughing", and as if they wish they could dive across the podium and say "LOOK TELL US WHAT YOU KNOW!! NOW!!! before we drop kick your ass across the white house lawn!" :lol:
