"I understand his point, but he's wrong," said spokeswoman Dana Perino. "We're being very honest and forthcoming," she added. "I hope that he would understand the spirit in which we have come forward and tried to explain how we screwed up our policy and how we're working to fix it."

1. "I am not a crook."
This is the 21st century version.

2. She is REALLY beginning to get on my nerves.
The shit-eating grin, that saving "Crazy Les" until the very end. The manditory joke at America's expense, and of course, the constant dissembling.

3. "screwed up our policy?"
How confidence inspiring. The point is, the e-mails are still there. Did anyone point that out to Miss Dana?

13. Really?
I don't know if you're serious. It's always hard to tell what these people are talking about from direct quotes. And something tells me that's not an accident.

15. Being sarcastic...
But they aren't sorry for anything. They're scrambling because they got caught using these addresses....

37. "screwed up our policy?"
Wow, that's the understatement of the century . . . .

It's unbelieveable to me that WH attorneys could possibly be advised that the emails were "gone." Ten to one they haven't talked to one IT guy and they're just making shit up.

Oh, wait a minute, we KNOW they're making shit up--sorry.
Maybe I feel more sorry about them thinking people actually believe what comes out of their mouths. :rofl:

7. The only "TELL" Dana Perino has is a slight smile when she's lying
She's GOOD. I wonder how she trained and why she didn't take the top spot.

36. WRONG! It's Clinton's fault. It is ALWAYS his fault. Or his penis'
how dare Bill and his group follow the laws on electronic communications when they were in charge? It makes BushCo look bad.

They can't even say, we did it too. But watch them try anyway.

9. This bunch is really dim if they truly believe all the emails are "lost."
As Gomer Pyle used to say, "Soo-prize, soo-prize, soo-prize."

Oh, right. Get a new line folks. It's a Democratic Congress now. And it's called checks and balances...

17. I suppose by their definition that may be true
Remember they are still saying no lies were made in the push to invade Iraq.

So if they feel they were not lying then, it is feasible they would believe they are not lying now. Telling big fat whoppers equals honesty in their books.

38. Today is Opposite Day at the White House!
Either that, or Ms. Perino is getting a jump on her post-political career of being a stand-up comic. Funnier, my dear; you have to be funnier!

Just because you say something, that doesn't mean it's true.
