**** Tony Snow. **** his "bravery" in fighting his illness. Just **** him.

Press Briefing by Tony Snow
James S. Brady Briefing Room
For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
June 15, 2006

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.

**** him!

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?

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.

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?

Their supposed concern about the number of soldiers that have sacrificed their lives in Iraq would be more believable if they weren`t so hell bent on coddling murderers and drug dealers that deal in death every day of the year.

They don`t give a rats a$$ about the them except as a way of psuedo outrage and political fodder.

[jukin]

Last year more people were murdered in Detroit than service members in Iraq.  Where is the outrage?

During billy jeffs presidency more service members were killed in accidents than have died under combat in Iraq.  Where was the outrage?

I wish the DUmbasses would stop the "I care about the troops" charade because they do not care about the troops.

[Happy Fun Ball]

Will the DUmmies celebrate when it does hit 4,000 like they did at the last "magic number"?

[Uhhuh35]

I dont think so. The war is won and Americans have moved on to other priorities, the economy being one.

Sorry DUmmies! 

[Happy Fun Ball]

That's never stopped the DUmmies before. Only now, less people will listen.

Also, I remember this thread from last year. They were predicting it would hit 4,000 by mid August, yet it's below that even now. I'd say that's a very good sign that we're definitely winning this one. You'd think that the DUmmies would be happy that far fewer soldiers are dying, but...welll, what do you expect from DUmmies?

Maybe a mole should go over there and remind them of that thread. Their reactions would be interesting, heheh.

Dipshit, theres still plenty of it.  Those of us who serve in the United States Military for example.

It's dipshits like you that are destroying the concept of courage and integrity.  So whenever your wondering why this country is on the fast track to the shitter, take a look into the mirror.  In the mean time we better people will still be out there fighting to save America.
