Our man in the White House, Eric Brewer (the only real blogger inside the press room) of BTC News stood tough in today’s gaggle in the wake of Scottie’s dodges and alongside the bulk of his paid brethren who largely took the Alito nomination bait so cleverly fed to them by the crooks who’d rather do anything than explain why they seem to have lied this country into an endless and pointless war.
Brewer’s question:
On October 7, 2003, the President said about the CIA leak investigation, “I want to know the truth. That’s why I’ve instructed the staff of mine to cooperate fully with the investigators.” Last Friday the special prosecutor said that he has been unable to find out the truth because of Lewis Libby’s obstruction of the investigation. Does the President wish that Mr. Libby tell the truth?
See Eric’s coverage to find out what — and if — Scottie answered…
We all know poor Scottie has a crappy job.
But that job pays $160,000, give or take.
By now, I expect zero from him.
Brewer asked one question for free.
How much do the other WH reporters- gaggles get paid?
Originally Scottie said it was ridiculous to think anyone in the White House was involved, and that Bush would fire anyone that was.
He knows he said that. And he knows that the reason Bush changed from "involved" to "convicted"
was that they both knew that White House people had been involved, but didn’t know if they’d be indicted and/or convicted (Rove, primarily). Scottie knows that Bush knows that we know that they know what they said, but after all the lies this crew has put out on WMD, uranium/Niger, prisoner abuse, when they first planned to invade Iraq, and 9/11, this is just garden-variety obfuscation.
They have only the fools to keep fooled now. That is their society of choice. The people of america have another society Scottie is not concerned with.
It seems that the old saying "ship of fools" may have started under similar conditions.
The admin helmsman seems to be steering the UN toward a conflict with Syria (link here).
The resolution has a military clause in it, so we know Bolton and Condi have been at work. Rummy is probably getting bored over Iraq. He needs a new video game to keep him chummy. Especially since it is nice to have a choice (Iran or Syria).
Scottie is the worm that wiggles and slimes his way thru the lie nest ("news conference") and oozes out new lies … slime to slide on.
Lies and hatred skate right thru these days. Ever since elections passed into history.
CITIZENSPOOK HAS CAUGHT DAVID CORN IN A BIG LIE.

TREASONGATE: Is David Corn Feeling Fitzgerald’s Heat?
Did David Corn publish intentionally misleading quotations from Fitzgerald’s press conference?
BACKGROUND
My report of August 19, 2005, "TREASONGATE: IN CAHOOTS — How The White House, Wilson, Novak, Corn and Plame Conspired for Treason" accuses DC and JW of being part of a broad double agent conspiracy to out Plame and Brewster Jennings.
One of the most interesting aspects of that report concerns the fact that it was David Corn who was the first person in the media to out Plame’s "covert" status as a CIA officer. Novak published her name on July 14, 2003 but it wasn’t until two days later, July 16, 2003, that DC was the first person to publish that she was an undercover CIA agent working on WMD. His source may have been JW. **More at link**

#4 off topic, too long, and rambling.
To avoid littering, just furnish a link next time.
The MSM press, with Scottie as its mascot perhaps, in the paper trail division, had a bad year (link here).
Evidently ’05 was the worst year since the recession for the newspaper dominion.
Wow … perhaps they will figure out that not printing the news could be a factor?
What a concept Scottie "It is ridiculus to think any of us had anything to do with anything" McClelland is costing the newspapers their livlihood.

wasn’t Corn(above) involved with some Archer-Daniels-Midland lobbying scam around 96ish?
