4/25/2006 11:23:00 PM

this could be good.

maybe it will mean someone within the administration will disagree with bush.
they are probably also trying to prove that the guy should get more respect from the rest of us.

here are some things he has said about bush;

Quote :

"Begin with the wimp factor. No president has looked this impotent this long when it comes to defending presidential powers and prerogatives. Nearly 57 months into his administration, President Bush has yet to veto a single bill of any type. The only other presidents never to issue a veto -- William Henry Harrison and James Garfield -- died within months of taking office."

Quote :

"So now things get interesting. The president has stirred up a lot of mischief, but Miers has to clean up the mess. The upcoming confirmation hearings will determine her fate -- and the president's. If she defies expectations, George Bush will look like a genius. If the Senate rejects her nomination, his presidency will come effectively to an end."

4/26/2006 1:11:00 AM

Also (not necessarily about Bush:

Quote :

"Frankly, I don't want ignoramuses showing up en masse to vote on propositions that could raise my taxes, restrict my freedom, or make life more miserable for my family. "

Quote :

"It serves notice that President Bush is serious about promoting freedom, because free societies are a lot more peaceable than dictatorships and monarchies. "

Quote :

"I spent more than my share of college nights getting stoned. I did it because I was a cocky little piss who figured the rules didn't apply"

Quote :

"Tommy Franks and the coalition forces have demonstrated the old axiom that boldness on the battlefield produces swift and relatively bloodless victory. The three-week swing through Iraq has utterly shattered skeptics' complaints"

- Tony Snow

4/26/2006 11:07:24 AM

Quote :

"Snow called the president "something of an embarrassment," a leader who has "lost control of the federal budget," the architect of a "listless domestic policy" and a man who has "a habit of singing from the political correctness hymnal.""

4/26/2006 11:07:58 AM

"White House scribe asks for the remote Reporter asks to watch CNN on Air Force One Friday, April 28, 2006; Posted: 6:22 a.m. EDT (10:22 GMT) WASHINGTON (CNN) -- It wasn't the price of gasoline, Darfur or the rebuilding effort in New Orleans that preoccupied the White House press corps Thursday aboard a flight on Air Force One. It was what channel they could watch on the White House televisions, Fox or CNN. During a briefing led by White House spokesman Scott McClellan as President Bush was traveling to New Orleans, Louisiana, the Washington Post's Jim VandeHei asked why the White House televisions always seemed to be tuned to Fox News and if it was possible to have them tuned instead to CNN. "It's come to my attention that there's been requests -- this is a serious question -- to turn these TVs onto a station other than Fox, and that those have been denied," VandeHei told McClellan, who is soon to be replaced by former Fox anchor and self-described conservative Tony Snow. "My question would be, is there a White House policy that all government TVs have to be tuned to Fox?" VandeHei asked. "Never heard of any such thing," McClellan responded. "My TVs are on four different channels at all times." VandeHei noted that McClellan has four televisions in his office, and clarified that he was referring to the ones that reporters can see. "They're always turned to Fox, which a lot of people consider a Republican-leaning network." VandeHei noted that the televisions are paid for with taxpayer dollars. "And my understanding is that you guys have to watch Fox on Air Force One. Is that true?" McClellan said it was the first he had heard such a claim, and that it was not true. "In fact, I've watched other channels on here," he said. "I've never known anyone that's raised a complaint about a request from back here to watch a different channel," McClellan added. VandeHei replied, "I'm officially raising it, and officially complaining about it." McClellan then asked whether VandeHei had tried to have the change made. "I was told -- the quote was, 'No,' when I asked for CNN," the reporter said. McClellan asked him with whom he had spoken, but VandeHei said he did not know. "Well, the magic people at the other end off the phone ... I was told, 'We don't watch CNN here, you can only watch Fox,' " VandeHei said. McClellan said he found the question "quite amusing," and left to see about making the change. Eighteen minutes after VandeHei raised the issue, McClellan had resolved it. "We just called up. They're going to be changing it, at your all's request, to the channel that you requested, which is CNN -- from the press corps." Fox News is popular with at least one highly placed person in the White House. According to the Web site "The Smoking Gun," whenever Vice President Dick Cheney stays in a hotel room, he requests extra lights, copies of five newspapers, and the television tuned to Fox. "

fox news is our last hope of presenting fair and balanced reporting to the American people.

4/28/2006 8:23:24 AM

bc if they dont watch FOX, they may find out what a shitty job they are doing

4/28/2006 8:31:14 AM

at least he solved it.
20 minutes to change the channel though? sounds like my grandfather was in charge of the remote

4/28/2006 8:40:12 AM

unfortunately it actually is. but they seem to sometimes try to even things out all by themselves.
and it's embarassing
then i turn to CNN and watch their anchors continuously roll their eyes, giggle and make vaguely derisive comments when covering stories about the actions of conservatives. then i just turn right back to FOX because hey,
ive listened to the CNN,ABC,CBS,NBC slant for my whole life.

4/28/2006 8:41:31 AM

thats why you shouldnt watch tv news
