While he did talk over her a bit, he WAS making strong arguments. During the course of the interview, she did not put forth one argument that was supportable in any way; mostly, it was a matter of trying to change the subject.
Strong arguments? First he talked over her. Secondly, it clear she was psyched out....after its his job to be the pit ball; she's a stand up comedian. And you're impressed with this BS?
Thirdly, his arguments looked strong because she didn't have the facts to counter them.
His first strong foray.......Bush did great diplomatic negotiations to gain support for this war as evidenced by 18 nations in support. Well, sounds like a strong argument for great diplomatic negotiations.
But it isn't........Bush's father had a coalition of 34 nations including our key and most financially supportive allies. And we didn't have to spend billions to get them to join us.
Strong argument? No, just more manipulation by the right!
Then jerkoff Snow says unabashedly that Saddam has killed 1 million Muslims and suggests that is why OBL calls him an infidel. Such BS.....first his comment implies that the Muslim deaths were genocidal and that's not true. Furthermore, the number he uses is a gross exaggeration. Thirdly, OBL thinks Saddam is an infidel not because of the wars he has entered and their ensuing deaths but rather because he is not loyal to the Koran.
Here's a list of the worst atrocities perpetrated against mankind since 1450; Kosovo makes the list but Iran/the Kurds are conspicuous in their absense:

Then Snow goes on to make the oh so strong argument that the Afghans are better off even without promised American financial assistance since they are no longer under Taliban rule. Now how long is that going to last without the wherewithall to rebuild their country and stave off attacks, or are we planning to stay in Afghanistan indefinitely to protect them?
Dancing in the streets of Bagdad? Thats the final image Snow presents. Yes, they will be dancing in the streets of Bagdad when we get rid of Saddam and they see our backs as we march back to America. Unbelievably, the Iraqi opposition has informed the US they want us out as soon as Saddam has been deposed.
What does that tell you, O Wise One? They are not too keen on Bush and his holy war nor are they too excited about us setting up a democracy to replace the current regime. However, they are more than glad to have us do their dirty work for them. Remember when I said people get what they deserve.
I know, I know......God wants this war!
I really wish they had the transcript. This woman is a total bufoon. Less interesting, but here is a transcript for her appearance with Tony Snow.
You're the buffoon, Snow is an asshole and Garofalo should stick to standup comedy. And you all are impressed with Snow's performance.....sad!
