What color is the sky in your world, Tony Snow?

When I listen to Tony Snow at these press corps "briefings", I think I understand a little better where people like Brandon and McG and Ticoyama and Asherman are coming from. I mean, this guy has either sold himself out so completely and thoroughly to the currently prevailing ideology that he really doesn't even perceive objective truth anymore, or he is just a brazen, boldfaced liar on a very reliable small team of brazen, boldfaced liars.

Here he is, minimizing the role that the fiasco in Iraq had to do with the midterm elections...

Q Tony, isn't the message -- is the message the people have spoken? This was largely a referendum on his policy in Iraq. We don't like the policy in Iraq comes the message back from the voters. So he's having to absorb this rejection.

MR. SNOW: Well, no. The President doesn't absorb a rejection. A couple of things: In ten of the races, you had members of the House of Representatives on the Republican side who have been tainted by scandal. I'm not sure Iraq played a big role in those races. The voters said, you know what, we expect you to come to Washington and do the people's business. And when people lose sight of that, voters tend to remind them of the priorities. That's 10 seats right there.
