Snow, Jobbed
AGate fans will want to watch today's WH briefing, which had Tony Snow in Scott McClellan-like form (battered panda! human traffic cone!) as he tried to sell the admin's talking points. How bad is it? He's now gone to both Goyal (of the "Goyal foil") AND Les Kinsolver (the crazy man). That's known as "pulling the escape hatch" and "pulling frantically at the escape hatch even though there's no chance in hell that it will open wide enough to get both you and the load of BS you're selling out of there."
His charm is failing him but he's right about one thing: Asked about the "3,000" pages being somewhat repetitive, he said, "I'm sorry if it's boring, email sometimes has that property."
