[tjdee]

46. My god, it's WONDERFUL!! They're actually saying "this is ridiculous".

I think they got together and decided not to take it today.

Whoever said this was the best press conference of Bush's administration was right, it's HILARIOUS!!

[shadowknows69]

53. is there any proof that there is this supposed "gag order?"

n/t

[shadowknows69]

54. that was beautiful

Rove caught "red handed" whoo hoo!!!

[Innoma]

7. Works for me...

Is it just me, or does Scotty sound like an uncomfortable high-school student giving a speech on a topic he didn't do any homework on?

Egads, man, I'm a better speaker than he is, and I suck!

[CatWoman]

8. he's a creepy little lying weasel bastard.

[democrat_patriot]

13. I get page cannot be displayed

Bummer.

[CatWoman]

14. see response #10

[Greyhound]

37. Me too. App launches, a torrent of data goes out, a handshake and then,...

nothing

[Cush]

4. why can't I view it?

it says that "rtsp is not a valid protocol"

[Richardo]

5. I get 'page cannot be displayed' when I hit the briefing link

Anyone else?

[librechik]

9. make sure you have Real Player of Windows Media Player

it'll come up as unplayable unless you have one of those (they like Real Player, unfortunately)

[RareLubbockDem]

10. try this. works for me.

paste this: rtsp://video.c-span.org/60days/whpb071105.rm into real player directly. It's opened for me that way.

[Richardo]

11. Thanks!

[City Lights]

33. Me too. Thanks.

QT was launching automatically when I clicked on the link.

[dogindia]

36. me too...but have not made real or windows work either

gosh how frustrating....I wonder who made such a bad link at cspan

real says server doesn't have dsn connection. windows media will not even look.


something is wrong....someone has posted the transcript. that will help

[City Lights]

39. You still can't open the link, even when you try through RealPlayer?

I copied the link, launched RealPlayer, clicked on "File," pulled down to "Open Location," and pasted the link there. Then it played fine. If that doesn't work for you, unfortunately, I don't know what else to have you try. :shrug: Sorry. I'm usually at the mercy of others here when it comes to these things. ;-)

[dogindia]

40. strange. I did that just the same. realplayer saw the link

tried to started by could not connect. I wonder if someone has hacked the link at cspan. I will keep trying

[Richard Steele]

[garybeck]

16. OMG!!!! KICK!!! NOMINATE!!!

this is the best thing I've seen on TV in months!!!! does this seem like watergate or what!!!!!!

[Coexist]

17. Just finished watching it...

what a great show that was. Scottie was NOT pleased. What a grilling he got. He ended up sounding like a complete idiot.

[CatWoman]

18. "ended up"??

:D

[King Coal]

30. You know Cat. Like standing on his head with his pants around his neck.

Nice thread. :hi:

[im10ashus]

19. For us cube rats...

[gkhouston]

20. and it's only Monday...

[garybeck]

21. the transcipt is here:

[halobeam]

34. Was quite beautiful

watching him look like the complete ass that he is.

Man, can we have some more Please??????

[troubleinwinter]

22. Jeff...?

[helderheid]

23. available here too if you have trouble on cspan

http://www.crooksandliars.com/2005/07/11.html#a3868

[dogday]

24. I just keep playing this over and over

and thinking. Why didn't these reporter give the administration this much freaking heat before Iraq? This is the first time in a long time I have seen the media so intent on getting the story from the White House.....

[ThomWV]

25. If You Missed It Live See It Now

This is the best press conference of the Bush Presidency, you simply can not afford to miss it.

I'm sorry to say that I do not know the name of the gentleman reporter from The Nation, but he is to be commended.

[tblue37]

35. I haven't seen or read it yet,

but if it's The Nation, I am betting David Corn.

[vard28]

26. Wonder if he went home early...

... surely after a grilling like that he's gonna need some aloe gel to soothe the burn marks. I certainly enjoyed his squirming. One of the best parts was the reporters laughing and saying "it's not worth it" to ask him any more real questions at the end.

It just aggravates me that now they all jump on the proverbial bandwagon to try to outscoop the other for the story.

Get your snacks and beverages ready boys and girls... The show may get good soon!


:popcorn:

Thanks for letting us know the link was available CatWoman!

[AngryWhiteLiberal]

27. Are we witness to the genesis of testicular fortitude in the press corp?

That was awesome!

Now, where were these "press balls" when Shrubster was trumping-up false reasons for war?

JB

[King Coal]

28. Poor Scott. Poor poor Scott. Poor dee poor poor poor poor poor Scott.

You see kids, Scott can't say anything now because the investigators asked him not to. He accidently did earlier, but he didn't mean to. You see, he said Rove or Scooter or Abrams wasn't involved before the investigators asked him not to talk about it. He's just trying to be helpful. Even if Bush talked about it after the investigation started, it doesn't matter, because Scott is not supposed to. Talk about it. Dang it, you have his response so don't judge him. Do you want all of your posts deleted? :smoke:

31. I Just Watched It....

Scotty's intelligence just OVERWHELMS me. A man a very few words I see, and gets his point across in a FINE manner!!!

NOT!

That was sooooooo much fun, I WANT MORE!!

I will watch it again though.

[melissinha]

32. ha ha ha ha

that was GREEEEEAAAAAT!

THen he starts talking like he's Bushco's puppet when he talks about terrorism.... its so interesting when one's speech changes so drastically.. now its platitudes..

with reference to Brittish troop withdrawl plans then he said "the military always plans for all contingencies"... a ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

[Nevernose]

38. I've been out of town

What am I supposed to be watching? Thanks!

[GreenPartyVoter]

41. Doesn't work for me *pouting*

[CatWoman]

47. then go to

www.crooksandliars.com

they have to video, too

[uppityperson]

42. The reporters all laugh after he leaves. Wait for the end.

The reporters all laugh and laugh. I am glad they didn't cut the recording right when he leaves as it is really good to hear the reporters laughing at him.

[dogindia]

48. DANG that was great

If I smoked, it would be time for a ciggy right now.

[spanone]

45. Step right up! Watch Scottie Squirm, Sweat & Lie.

Boy, that is totally worth the price of admission. A press corps with an inkling of gonads.

[rainman99]

49. GO DAVID GREGORY!!!!!!!

[MelissaB]

51. He nailed Scotty!

:kick:

[liberalla]

56. Yesirree!!!

"A press corps with an inkling of gonads."

I hope the press enjoyed it! It must have felt great to grill him and push for answers... just like the 'ol days. They've been muzzled and restrained for so long, and today they escaped their boxes. My hope is that it will be impossible for them to go back to being compliant, wimpy little stenographers.

How could they stop now?

I've heard predictions of a rebellion by the press. Is this it?

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

50. WTF? What kind of question is this:

Q One follow-up. Considering the widespread interest and the absolutely frantic Democrat reaction to Karl Rove's excellent speech to conservatives last month, does the President hope that Karl will give a lot more speeches?

:wtf:

Gannon redux?

[kcass1954]

52. This is so beautiful!

I just watched it like 5 times. I sat in front of my computer, complete mesmerized. I haven't closed down RMP yet, because I'm feeling the urge to watch it again.

If the corporate media would ask these kinds of questions on a regular basis, and then actually follow-up with a story on the evening news, I might have to give them another shot.

David Gregory has been making steps toward this for a while. But these other guys' questions came totally out of left field. Who was the first guy on? Scotty called him Terry, but I didn't see a last name or where he's from - I couldn't even see his face.

We need to send a round of emails to them all. Anyone got email addresses?
