By Dana Milbank
Saturday, May 13, 2006; A02

Depending on how you look at it, Tony Snow's first briefing as White House press secretary yesterday morning started either 18 minutes late or 12 minutes early.

Shortly before the start of his 9 a.m. "gaggle" -- the daily off-camera briefing -- the White House paged reporters to say the gaggle would instead start at 9:30. But to the dismay of reporters showing up at 9:30, Snow had begun the briefing, at 9:18.

I wish him well but I refuse to, unlike some, worship a talking-media-guy.

The eternally childish Milbank calling any other adult a kid is a laugh.

Not bad "New Kid." A little rocky to start but you handled the vultures quite well.

Associated Press's Jennifer Loven would put her negative spin on anything Snow said so it's no loss to accuracute reporting if she could not hear.

Who cares what she thinks? Her and her ilk dont give and ounce of respect to the White House and they expect to be notified? Urinate up a rope, Kelly..

LOL! Did she have her fingers in her ears? This is like dealing with thirteen year olds while their parents are off on vacation.

Yeah, I know but it's just a nod at him. Who knows he may lurk now and again.
