Is anyone watching Tony Snow verbally beat on Helen Thomas on Fox???

Today was one of the few times I was able to actually watch Tony's Presidential work. After seeing this conference, I asked myself, "Is this the norm now?"
I knew Thomas would still be there, but I had no idea that they'd allow her to get so rude and obnoxious.

But, as expected, Secretary Snow nuked her rather nicely from the get-go with this: "Please let me finish. I know this is great entertainment, but I want to finish the answer."

From that point on, she was made irrelevant.
Is this unusual, or does Thomas get nuked on a regular basis at these things now?

That's almost exactly how I invented the word, "Enemedia."

Do a keyword search in it. Interesting finds.

Tony has been just terrific in the press conferences I've watched and in all but one of the conferences I've seen, he's "nuked" Helen. LOL

[RobbyS]

I see what you mean.

[hophead]

"That is rude, what if someone judged you by the way you look? That is a democrat tactic, and they really hurt Linda Tripp by focusing on her aged looks. We all get old."

Well Excuuuuuuuuse me!! We are judged on our looks EVERY day whether you like it or not. That is the way things are. Our sense of sight is our first line of defense and our brains have used it forever to assess our surroundings.

She already has on numerous occasions. But the libs love her because she is so incessantly "hectoring" (BWAHAHAHAHA!!!) the right.

It's training. What if, one day, you are personnaly confronted by HT, or maybe someother godaweful looking hippie lib, and you must keep your composure. Now, with the training you've been provided here, you can do that. As for me, I'm still gonna bitch slap her accross the room.

[phoenix0468]

Well he is blushing, and seems to be somewhat amused

you never really saw him with that demeanor when Hilly was around. BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

George Orwell said that at 50, everyone has the face he deserves. This is even more true of Helen Thomas at her age. Dorian Gray had his moral ravages transferred to a secret portrait. Everyone else, Helen Thomas included, has to wear them in public.

It's training.

Well, then, I should have worn training pants. I'm gonna send you my laundry bill.
