Snow: "The president doesn’t look for cover. What he looks for is the best information."

<snip>

The president will have so much advice, someone suggested today at the daily press briefing, that he’ll have the “cover’’ to do just about anything he chooses. “You don’t understand the president,’’ Snow said. “The president doesn’t look for cover. What he looks for is the best information.’’

2. Bush doesn't look for "the best information"--he's only looking
for opinions which back up his own misguided ideas.

3. You keep telling yourself that Tony. Denial is needed sometimes to keep one's
head from exploding. The last thing we want to see is your head exploding Tony.

9. Speak for yourself...
I think it would be a real ratings booster to see Tony Snow explode--not physically, but mentally.

Mentally ok but physically no. I don't like gore. Of course in Tony's case, maybe nothing would
come out.

5. Obviously bush doesn't know where to look
and hasn't known for more then six years. Snow lied three times in a matter of seconds:

- People do know "the president"
- bush does look for cover
- bush has no concept of what the best information is

6. That is absolutely the funniest thing I have ever heard
Unless that information is printed somewhere on the label of a bottle of Kentucky Bourbon, I don't believe Our Dear Leader would find it.

I guess no one 'covered' that.

10. I Am Waiting to Hear
ONE reporter say, "Tony, you're a friggin liar!" I don't know how they play this game day in and day out.
