This is, quite frankly, amazing. I can’t believe someone could stand in front of a microphone as the spokesperson for the President of the United States and simply lie continuously. He is literally stating the opposite of the truth in EVERY statement. Snow is getting close to the reality denial of Saddam’s old spokesman.
One of those mocking, derisive but ultimately silly attacks made by both Giuliani and Palin yesterday had to do with mocking Obama’s time as a community organizers. I’ve read many different posts today defending the work community organizers do but Obama, as you might expect, puts the right perspective on the issue. Steve Benen has more background.
(he slightly misspeaks at the start — it was 20 years ago, not 3).
Key takeaway: last time Congress voted on a contempt citation, it was during Reagan’s term. Then, the House voted 413-0 to cite a former EPA official for not honoring a subpoena. This time, the committee split 22-17 to allow the full House to vote. 22-17. That’s disgraceful. Read the rest of the original post, you’ll be pissed after you do.
