HEADS UP .... Ari's press conference coming up at noon ET
Edited on Mon Jul-14-03 11:00 AM by foxglove1
We'll see how many legs this thing has grown by how many local network stations carry it

On edit: my bad ... it's Mr. Potatohead at noon. Anyone have confirmation of *'s press conference, or did they mean Ari when they announced it this morning?

1. Bring Em On!
I hope he keeps up the cowboy routine and continues to insist it was no big deal and wasn't his fault. The usual arrogance isn't going to work, but that's the only routine he knows. Just hope someone didn't get smart and tell him to be contrite.

I'm on pins and needles!!

2. Is this another one
where the press is given the questions? Probably just another waste of time.

4. Helen asking if * stands by all the statements
Mr. Potatohead: Yes of course, blah blah blah

Helen: He stands by the statement that Hussein was looking for uranium and that we'll find WMD?

Mr. P: Of course blah blah blah

5. Smirk is holding a "Press Conference"?
Like with reporters asking questions, and no teleprompter, and stuff like that? Isn't that against the law or violate some kind of security regulation?

6. whitehouse.gov said Bush giving press conf at 12:15 EST
So.....maybe Ari on for 15 minutes.....then Bush.

I can see it.....Bush can keep saying..."oh, Ari answered that."

9. Who is this guy?
Asking why Bush who see's himself as a straightshooter, & Mr Accountability doesn't seem upset? Where's the reposibility?

Ari did everything he could avoid it.

ANother guy is asking: Why was the such a rush to war? It's beginning to like there was no imminet threat.


Lol, Ari now saying the info scrubbed from the Oct speech was different than the SOTU

16. Ok, here's Ari's final explanation - now stop asking questions!!
First of all, the reference in the SOTU was about buying uranium from AFRICA ....

The reference that was removed from the speech in October was about buying uranium from NIGER.

See? TOTALLY DIFFERENT THINGS! Case closed, end of story ... got it??

17. But according to official BushCo geography
africa is actually a separate country, so there is no logical conflict at all!
