41. Scotty cut Les off on a dingbat question about whether the WH

has heard any support from 'homosexual organizations' for Oprah Winfrey's $100k rewards for catching child molesters, or something. Scotty refused to dignify it with a response. Ok, I can dig that one.

[seaglass]

44. It wasn't a dingbat question, it was a disgusting question. I muted

the TV as soon as Les came up and unfortunately unmuted too soon.

him/the WH who brought up her religion!

[rodeodance]

55. "I think the focus should be on her record and qualifications"!! --puttin

g the blame on the media--not the WH for bringing up her religion.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

50. WOW! It's almost as rowdy as Parliment!!!! Scottie called her religious

philosophy as a side issue!!!!

[annabanana]

62. It WAS lively, wasn't it?.....n/t

[annabanana]

61. Why won't Scottie confirm that she's a pitbull?

Why won't he say that she can stand up to the scrutiny? He has sidstepped this several times.

And if he wants us to consider "qualifications and her record" why won't they release anything but birthday cards?
