(Video) Snow To Thomas: “Thank You For The Hezbollah View”
2006-07-18

#12  Great vid. Snow is light years ahead of of the last press sec. or another that I can think of. Great command of facts, sense of humor, wicked wit and a stilleto aimed at the press' pomposity. The new paradigm, press secretaries as court jesters to the news media royalty.

#11  Thanks for the tip on the video, CF.

What I love best about Snow is the way he kept his sense of humor in dealing with the old bat, which is the only way to do it. He kept smiling and laughing at her while trying to explain what was going on, and why a ceasefire wouldn't work. That can't be easy.

Perhaps, but H. is equally obnoxious and belligerent on all topics over too long a time span.

#9  If memory serves, H. Thomas' family emigrated from Tripoli, Lebanon.

#7  I watched that presser. Tony is great! He finally cut one guy off with saying, "Good try, but you're still wrong," and pointed his finger toward another person.

#6  are all the pages colored in, or did she leave a few as "homework" for her fervent fans?

#4  All that's required to be called a media "legend" , at least among the media, is to spew your vitriolic America hating BS, and to do it for a long time. Time to break out the walker.

#3  I don't see why he tolerated her as much as he did. She was interrupting his answers continuously.
