1. " the stoey has gone from an accident on VP free time to Who is in Charge

at the WH" says Gergen.

[rodeodance]

3. Matthews asking-Why is the VP getting special treatment"?

[Skidmore]

2. They flunked more than that.

[rodeodance]

6. Dee just had a good one liner about VP and who is in charge but I

forget already!

[Catherine Vincent]

4. Gergen also said you don't embarrass the president.

The thing is, Bush is already an EMBARRASSMENT.

[rodeodance]

9. Dede saying no one is calling the VP on the carpet for this one. all are

afraid of him.

[VOX]

5. The first true thing the media has said regarding this incident. n/t

[LSparkle]

7. "Their COMPETENCE is being called into question ... "

I thought these were supposed to be the "grown-ups" returning order to the White Haus ... ???

[MissWaverly]

12. weren't they supposed to be ethical

above and beyond the minimum, talking to the police after you shoot someone would
meet that category

[LSparkle]

15. "Not just what's lawful, but what's ethical ... "

Or words to that effect. Not that we should expect these jokers to ABIDE by their campaign promises...

[MissWaverly]

16. they never abide by anything

they lie about everything including this shooting, they made it seem like it wss the
ranch owners' idea to call the newspapers now we find out she had been briefed by
Karl Rove first.

[LSparkle]

17. OMG -- I hadn't heard that until now

great, KKKarl, come on in to this scandal, the water's FINE!

[MissWaverly]

18. I just hope that he has to end up testifying on his role in this

he is not part of Cheney's staff, he works for Bush, why didn't Cheney's aides handle this,
we all know the answer.

[July]

19. LOL, I'm with you, LSparkle!

Let's share the "love" with these weasels!

[thebigidea]

8. so say the guys that have been doing damage control for Bush for years

Sunny nobility!

[DoYouEverWonder]

10. If they screwed up something little like this

it makes you wonder about the big things?

Incompetence is an artform with the misadministration.

[JeffR]

11. memo to David Gergen

You might have heard about their response to a little thing called Katrina. That was the final word about the (mis)administration's "damage control" skills.

[rodeodance]

13. Gergen -on Scott not being alllowed to talk of turn for worse-I do not kno

what these guys are thinking up there. shaking his head.

[Catherine Vincent]

14. Gergen better be careful or Babs will come after him!
