So Many Republican Hypocrites, So Little Time

Tony Snow

Welcome back to the BuzzFlash GOP Hypocrite of the Week.

It would be perhaps more precise to call paid-GOP-propaganda-shill-on-FOX News-turned-paid-GOP-propaganda-shill as White House Press Secretary, Tony Snow, a smarmy prick.

But he's also a daily hypocrite in his arrogant and deceitful dealings with the lapdogs of the White House Press Corps. He's their male dominatrix. He cracks the whip of mistruths as he casts out snide asides and the well-paid stenographers of the status quo roll over and retreat to their submissive stenography.

This past week, Snow refused to acknowledge a statement of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Peter Pace. In essence, Pace repudiated a claim made by the Bushevik Iran war propaganda machine that the Iranian government was intentionally supplying roadside bombs to kill GIs.

Snow did his usual arrogant obfuscation, which he learned so well from his stint at FOX, and claimed that Pace actually was agreeing with anonymous military leaders in Iraq who held a news conference – at the behest of the White House – that Pace didn't even know was occurring.

As is usual with the White House, the story becomes such a tragic farce – considering all the dead and wounded – that you would think Snow would occasionally have the audacity to be honest for a change.

But that would be too much to ask of a Bushevik spokesperson. You earn your stripes in this White House by lying, not by telling the truth.

Tony Snow, calling you a GOP hypocrite gives hypocrisy a bad name.

Until next week, remember our motto: So many Republican hypocrites, so little time.

Catch up with you soon.
