I commented on this similar thing – specifically how Snow thinks that watching Bush work is like watching a guy play 40 chess games at once – over on my blog.

October 16th, 2006 at 11:20 amFoxy the Snowman is an even bigger idiot that I had given him credit for.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:23 amI think Monica used to same the same thing about Bill.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:27 amAll these A- holes are more interested in the illusion of power and ego rather than governing.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:27 amSnow’s got a crush on bush? That’s just insane.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:27 amIf Bush is playing “40 chess matches at once” which one is he winning? Based on his press conferences, I would think Bush would have his hands full with one game of Candyland with 3-4 second graders.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:28 amI can see that. I wouldn’t mind being in the Oval Office. Just me and the president. Nobody else. Maybe a bag of pretzels.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:29 am#4: Umm, “SAY the same thing…”
October 16th, 2006 at 11:30 amWhy do they always do that!

Drives me crazy!

The snow man deserves his fun while it will last. I the bigger picture, he will barely be remembered.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:35 amDon’t be too hard on Tony…it might be the first completely honest thing he’s said as Press Secretary… ;-)

Unfortunately he’s right!
Watching Bush in action is like watching a person with a remedial knowledge of checkers try to pay 40 chess games at once… it’s not a pretty sight.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:38 amPeople like Tony Snow are smug lapdogs, I will enjoy seeing this asshat get some well deserved compeuppance of cold harsh sobering reality once the pseudo reality bubble of Bush world bursts !
October 16th, 2006 at 11:40 amDid Tony Snow just admit that he and Bush are lovers? Lol the last guy who bragged about being in the White House was Jeff Gannon the male hooker!
October 16th, 2006 at 11:43 amExhibit A of why Bushites are such total dorks.
It’s one thing to get a boner spending time alone with your boss. It’s quite another thing to boast about this fetish. It’s too f*cking funny that there are people that would pay to hear this, and cheer the dorkishness.
Hell, this is like making a porn film then selling your memoirs. The joke is obviously on the punters that lap this crap up.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:52 am#7: hi-larious! Although, Candyland can be tricky. Granted, it’s no Chutes and Ladders, but that green square can really mess you up.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:55 amSince “BushCo” as reality is so scary, can we instead make it a TV comedy show? Imagine:
Will Farrell as President Bush
October 16th, 2006 at 12:00 pmJohn Goodman as Dick Cheney
Pee Wee Herman as Tony Snow
Bill Murray as Donald Rumsfeld
a store mannikin as Condi Rice
GDumbya playing 40 chess games at once?
Hell, just last year, he took six months to put a jigsaw puzzle together. He was very proud of himself, though, because the box said “2 to 4 years”.
lol
October 16th, 2006 at 12:02 pmSlow. News. Day.
October 16th, 2006 at 12:07 pmNo need to imagine. Don’t you remember the show “That’s my Bush” It was put out by no other than Trey Park and Matt Stone of South Park and Team America fame.

October 16th, 2006 at 12:23 pmSee what I get for not watching much TV. Thanks for the information.
Actually it’s quite easy for an ametuer to win at least half of 40 chess matches. It’s an excellent bar bet I read in a Harry Anderson book (of Night Court). Even against the toughest of chess masters…
All he has to do is to copy the first 20 opponents moves as he plays against the second set of 20. That sounds like it’s right on pace with Bush’s MO.
October 16th, 2006 at 12:55 pmTony just volunteered a nickname for himself : Starfu**er. “tell us, tony, what’s it like to be a political groupie? does your jaw ever get sore?”
October 16th, 2006 at 1:08 pmTony is used to setting the bar low so he hasn’t disappointed with this particular silly statement either.
October 16th, 2006 at 1:51 pmTony Snow.
A modern day feudal serf …
October 16th, 2006 at 3:14 pmand tony was hiding under the desk. everyone president needs a monica
October 16th, 2006 at 4:28 pmI’d tell Snowflake & GWB to get a room, but it looks like they already have one.
October 16th, 2006 at 9:01 pmI could have sworn I posted something like this earlier here:
Tony loved riding in the presidential SUV also, he loved playing with the NORAD closed circuit satellite TV, he had Tom and Jerry cartoons on, he kept buzzing the driver, several times, with no orders. He made the secret service stop traffic several times.
October 16th, 2006 at 11:10 pmDamn, Tony, just get under the desk already and do a Jeff Gannon.
