Q Tony, American deaths in Iraq have reached 2,500. Is there any response or reaction from the President on that?

MR. SNOW: It's a number, and every time there's one of these 500 benchmarks people want something. The President would like the war to be over now. Everybody would like the war to be over now. And the one thing that we saw in Iraq this week is further testimony to the quality of the men and the women who are doing that, and the dedication and determination to try to ensure that the people of Iraq really do live in a free, effective democracy of their own creation and design.

Any President who goes through a time of war feels very deeply the responsibility for sending men and women into harm's way, and feels very deeply the pain that the families feel. And this President is no different. You've seen it many times. You saw it, you saw it when he was in that ballroom, Terry, and you had this crowd of servicemen and women who were cheering loudly for the President, and he got choked up. So it's always a sad benchmark, and one of the things the President has said is that these people will not die in vain.

And part of what happened this very week when the President went to Baghdad, and he sat down with the Prime Minister and he sat down with the cabinet, and he sat down with the President and Vice President, he sat down with the national security team, and he sat down with the leaders of all the major political parties, what he saw now is that after all of this, what you have in Iraq is a freestanding government that has been elected by the Iraqi people. It has a Prime Minister who is going to be there for four years, who is determined to act as a Prime Minister, who is determined to lead, who is setting priorities, and he's somebody we can work with. You have a Minister of Defense who has significant experience and is already working with his colleagues, not only here at the Pentagon, but also General Casey and others in the field. The President understands that those deaths cannot be in vain, and you've got a government now that can help ensure that that is not the case.

Q Was he told about the benchmark, the President?

MR. SNOW: I don't know. I'm sure he will hear about it.

FUCK him!

1. Dana will say whatever they tell her to say.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

2. In that sense, she's perfect.

No mind of her own.

Not that Tony had one. He could tell you at any given moment what Roger Ailes had for lunch.

What the hell ever happened to COURAGE and INTEGRITY in our country?

[MadMaddie]

3. Cowards do not possess integrity and courage.

Dana, Tony and * have no skin in the game they never have. They go home at night and sleep like babies.

History and the citizens of America will never forget or forgive them for the lives lost through this unnecessary war.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

4. I can "intellectualize" all of this.

I understand a paycheck.

I understand money in the bank.

I just don't understand the things we sometimes need to say and do to GET that paycheck.

I couldn't do it.

Tony "CANCER HERO" Snow COULD.

Dana Perino apparently can.

Is it November 2008 yet?

[MadMaddie]

5. Tony still defends his lies to this day. Never liked him.

Remember, Remember the 5th of November!!
