Anyone find it strange that Tony Snow didn't answer any questions today??

Does anyone else here find it strange that Tony Snow didn't answer any questions today, and was immediately rushed out of the briefing room at warp speed?? Also, if you listen to Bush's voice today, he wasn't exactly brimming with vim and vigor. He seemed totally subdued in essence saying man, I really don't want to get up in front of these asshole reporters and introduce a man who I really don't want in my White House!!!

Tony did the usual interview stuff, thanking Bush for the appointment, and promising to do the best job he can. basically, all the BS you say at one of these things.

Did anyone else notice this, or was it just me being totally cynical??

1. No one has answered ANY questions ........

from that podium for a long time.

I would bet Tony Snowjob will pull a Scotty McClellan first chance he gets. "We cannot comment on an ongoing investigation"

[unblock]

2. he hasn't been prepped yet, that's all.

he needs to get his master's in ad lib propaganda from rove-goebbels university.
so far he only has a bachelor's in propaganda script reading.

3. No you are not cynical but did you notice who he gave his first

interview to?

None other than Brit Hume! Imagine that.

Someone on the news mentioned that now maybe that is the way they will do it; thru Snow, then thru Hume & get their message out.

Also, unbelievable how the media is constantly blowing up the fact that Snow criticized the President. Who the fuck has'nt by now, certainly been given plenty of reason but Snow is Fox News all the way or State News on the Republican Network.

5. George was on Jim Beam, Tony just hit a popper, and they both ran offstage

to hook up with Jimmyjeff Gannonguckert.

Same-as-it-ever-was. Same-as-it-ever-was.

6. I noticed it too

I imagine they were afraid he might say something before they could fully train him on how to say "I can't answer that".

8. He didn't answer any questions?

Why should he? Is that part of his new job description? If it is, someone had better alert the WH right away.
