Transcript: President Bush's Press Conference: 12/19/2005

The White House ^ | December 19, 2005

[Howlin]

"My personal opinion is it was a shameful act, for someone to disclose this very important program in time of war. "

[sheikdetailfeather]

I missed it the first time. Can't wait to see it! Glad for the transcript.

[TruthNtegrity]

Thank you. I missed it. Can't bring up my online TV whilst listening to Windows Media Player (Tony Snow show).

Apparently, Windows hogs a driver that my TV needs. No surprise there.

I'll have to figure out what the driver problem is, and fix it. Later.

[Howlin]

Do NOT miss the rerun of this press conference.

[ml1954]

Nice try. End of your try.

BWAHAHA. Now that's the way to handle a hostile question.

[Howlin]

I use Real Player and don't seem to ever have a problem.

[Mike Darancette]

Senate Democratic leader boasted to a group of political supporters that the Senate Democrats had "killed the Patriot Act." Most of the senators now filibustering the Patriot Act actually voted for it in 2001.

Ouch, that's gotta leave a mark.

[auboy]

A huge THANK YOU bump!

[Howlin]

He was just fabulous. You have to SEE it to get the full force of the way he talked to them!

I told somebody on the Live Thread that all he needed was a RULER!

[Howlin]

Did you see it?

He really laid into them.

It was swell.

[sheikdetailfeather]

I DEFINITELY WILL WATCH IT AND TAPE IT TOO!

[MOgirl]

Hello,

I was running between the computer and the TV in the other room. What a lovely surprise the President gave us and the nation today!

Glad to be here, MOgirl

[BigSkyFreeper]

Thanks for posting. You beat me to it. :)

[ml1954]

You have to SEE it to get the full force of the way he talked to them!

I only saw the first 15 minutes. Heard another 10 minutes or so on the radio. Missed the 'Nice Try. End of you Try' phrase.

I'll have to tune into the rerun.

He really needs to do this more often.

[eureka!]

marking for later

[Mike Darancette]

It was swell.

Saw it and loved it.

With all of the eavesdropping stuff going on I cannot figure how anyone can assume that there is ANY expectation of privacy on international communications?

[Kate of Spice Island]

You are a GEM!

Thank you for the ping!

Where are the trolls? I miss playing with the viking kitties.

Hugs,

Kate

So I'm just going to keep doing my job. Maybe you can keep focusing on all these focus groups and polls, and all that business. My job is to lead, keep telling the American people what I believe, work to bring people together to achieve a common objective, stand on principle, and that's the way I'm going to lead. I did so in 2005, and I'm going to do so in 2006.

Game, set, Match

You need a huge hard drive to store video files. Weaknees has just offered the first terabyte TiVo. Try wrapping your mind around that one.
