McClellan puts it ALL into perspective, MAGNIFICENTLY. Bravo, Scotty.

Q Scott, briefly back to this report and the President's veto threat. I gather it's still --

MR. McCLELLAN: Absolutely.

Q Does it apply to any measure that would block the deal, or one that would just delay --

MR. McCLELLAN: He's talking broadly about legislation that would prevent this transaction from going forward, and I think he was pretty clear in his remarks yesterday.

Q Legislation that would delay it --

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, the question that was asked was specifically about the legislation that Senator Frist was talking about, and that's how I responded to that comment. So, yes.

Q Scott, are there -- is there anybody in the administration that's talking to company representatives about extending the date before the closing of this transaction at all?

MR. McCLELLAN: Not that I know of. I mean, once the process is complete, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States process is complete, all the national security issues are addressed and the transaction is approved to go forward, my understanding is that the only way it can be reopened is if there were false or misleading information provided during this review process, or important information omitted during that process. So that's the process that Congress put in place.

Q And a follow-up to Suzanne's question. I take it that on the political review at the White House, I take it people such as Karl Rove did not take a political look-see at this for any implications at all?

MR. McCLELLAN: No. His office was not involved in this process.

Q A two-part. Didn't the 9/11 Committee report document how al Qaeda and the 9/11 terrorists used Dubai as a banking facility, as well as a country of transit?

MR. McCLELLAN: You can go look at the 9/11 Commission report and see what it spells out. I don't think that issue is what we're talking about here.

Q I think that was reported --

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, there are other companies, foreign-owned companies that manage ports around the world, including here, where citizens from their countries have been involved in terrorist acts. Is that correct? Okay, thank you.

1. Did McClellan just say that other terrorist

with other countries were working in the US?

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

2. Foreign countries manage ports, and those countries have terrorists...

...so what's one more?

I think that's his logic...

[Vickers]

3. Did we invade those countries, or is Iraq taking the heat for everyone?

:shrug:

He's such a pathetic assmonkey.

That is one motherfucker that needs to be put under oath, and have a JUDGE tell him when he's actually answered a question.
