1. I imagine it will start sometime in the next 15 if not sooner.

I can't imagine Scott would let the briefing slip on his first day.

Would you want to run on a 450 bn dollar deficit? Declining revenues because of recession nevermind the tax cuts?

15. This guy's been thrown to the wolves here.

This is awesome. Iraq/Niger is the second question. He's stumbling all over the place. "I think that we have addressed this issue." I think? Nice work buddy. You're toast.

Reporter: The point is, the president said doubts were only raised after the SOU - that's not accurate. Why did he say that?

Little Mac: Well, uh, um, we only found out the docs were forged in March when the IAEA told us.

Citing a 1999 report. Pitiful.

13. Lying about the Niger document

A reporter actually asked about W's comment about how only after the SoTU speech was he made aware of it's falseness. McLiellan said that that was true, only when the IAEA stated that it was forged did they know.

BS!

50. It's true.....

If you take the intelligence and reroute the forward coupling through the primary flux capacitors and filter the intelligence through the main deflector dish while using a 9/11 prismatic eps conduit, then you have no choice but to attack Iraq.

Now McClellan is backtracking on the statement. North Korea..we're losing control over NKorea..danger of nukes being detonated in American cities.

Someone is busting him on them blaming this on the Brits while the CIA had told them to take it out. "There was a difference...let's remember that..."

No one is asking why a President of the United States would reference British intelligence and not get the CIA etc. to check it out.

52. The sentence was perfectly crafted...

to hide the fact that the CIA did not like it.

They are calling him to task. Mentioned the additional sources, but will they say what these sources are?

How many times will he say something along the lines of that has already been answered?

Now they are asking about Powell's speech. Why was he harder to convince then W?

Now back to blaming the CIA.

So sad.

61. Here's the BIG difference between Ari Liar and Lil' Mac...

Ari called on reporters in order--an order HE created. Lil' Mac allows the chaos of random questions. This causes the press corp to go into feeding frenzy mode, hence the the constant defensive posture of Lil' Mac. Ari Liar whipped the press corp and made them do his bidding.

77. I can't believe that he just walked into the Al-Qaeda/Iraq

connection. As far as I could tell, he wasn't even ASKED about it...

This is going to be fun.

96. Everything is clear now

Apparently everything is clear to him. He cited Saddam Hussein practicing deception and trying to deceive. Then included the buried centerfuge parts and the Beverly Hillbilly trailers for biologicals.

90. Les what's his face

Now the guy is asking him about NAACP snub. Does the President believe 3 members of congress should be pilloried when he didn't go to NAACP.

CBC question about slavery...woohoo...President ignoring black slaves in Moritania! (sp)

Wish they would ask about SLAVES CAME TO AMERICA..but they didn't!

92. Trying the uniter line again

He brings people together. Maybe he is right, a lot more people have been brought together to oppose him.

95. And Scott makes a hasty retreat

Poor showing for Lil' Mac on his first outing. Will he settle into the job and become more Ari-like, or will he run like a frightened rabbit in six months? Methinks this will get good...for us, that is.
