I think his being able to shmooze his way through that presser for two hours is further evidence that he has no conscious. I don't think anyone on the planet believed a word out of his mouth. It just doesn't make sense.All that presser did was perfectly demonstrate how easily he lies.

On top of being an adroit liar, what he said it makes him look bad. THAT'S how he runs an administration as Governor?? how incompetent can someone be? He looks like a fool if what he's saying is true. Not to mention the fact that it was life and death during the time that he "didn't know".

It's in the same league as Bush in the aftermath of katrina as far as I'm concerned. worse!even, cuz he orchestrated it.

He's a liar. I don't think the people he's paid off WILL keep quiet, the truth will surface...
