A different league

I love this Tony Snow bloke. He makes Alastair Campbell look like the paragon of virtue. Here’s Snow on Bush commuting Scooter Libby’s jail sentence.

    There’s a chutzpah at work here which I find irresistible.

    Fuck you, they’re saying, we really, really, really don’t give a shit what you think any more. The arrogance is breathtaking, and the execution is note-perfect.

    Snow could barely show any more contempt for his audience if he drew a pair of eyes and a smiley mouth on his cock and stuck that in front of the microphones. Extraordinary.

    Unbelievable.

    Are they obliged to give these briefings? You think it would save everyone time if they just handed the journos some bits of used paper from the presidential toilet.

    Tony Snow is known here in the U.S. as being more free in his speech than previous White House Press secs. He’s actually kind of funny sometimes, and he does get extra points for taking time of to battle cancer. But the spin is quite amazing, yes.

    July the Fourth, let’s celebrate The Land of the Free: Free to lock you up and Free to Free anybody else.
    Little Crook goes to jail, Big Crook becomes President (popular saying in South American Banana Republics)only in good ol’ USofA even Little Crook does not go to Jail.
