White House Press BriefingsPress Briefings by the White House Press Secretary and other Administration officials.Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7312007- July 31, 2007 MR. SNOW: Good afternoon. A couple of preliminary notes, and then I'll take your questions. First, the President had a call today with Canadian Prime Minister Harper. They talked for 20 minutes. The two leaders, along with Mexican President Felipe Calderon, will meet on August 20 and 21st, in Montebello, Canada. It will be the third time that the three North American leaders have met during this administration.http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070731-1.html Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7272007- July 27, 2007 MR. SNOW: Here we go. Questions.http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070727-8.html Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7252007- July 25, 2007 MR. SNOW: Hello, everybody. As you probably know, the House Judiciary Committee has just voted along partisan lines to have a criminal contempt of Congress referral against White House legal counsel and the White House Chief of Staff. For our view, this is pathetic. What you have right now is partisanship on Capitol Hill that quite often boils down to insults, insinuations, inquisitions and investigations rather than pursuing the normal business of trying to pass major pieces of legislation,...http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070725-3.html Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7232007- July 23, 2007 MR. SNOW: Good afternoon. First we'll begin with an announcement about the President's health. Microscopic evaluations of the polyps discovered and removed during the President's colonoscopy confirmed the preliminary diagnosis, tubular adenoma. There were five such polyps. The President's next colonoscopy should be in three years, the rule of thumb is if you have more than three such polyps you do your surveillance periods for three years.http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070723-1.html Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7182007- July 18, 2007 MR. SNOW: As Bill Plante just said, let's begin by welcoming back Bret Baier. You've been in a lot of our thoughts and prayers, and very happy to hear the Bret's son has come through some very testing surgery, coming through with flying colors. Applause. There's no fear like a parent worrying about a kid. So, God bless you. Just very happy to hear it.http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070718-7.html Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7172007- July 17, 2007 MR. SNOW: All right. First, one announcement, a war on terror-related announcement, before we get to questions.http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070717-9.html Press Briefing by White House Homeland Security Advisor Fran Townsend - 7172007- July 17, 2007 MS. TOWNSEND: Good morning, everybody. Earlier today, the Director of National Intelligence briefed the President and senior staff on the new National Intelligence Estimate on the terrorist threat to the homeland. The DNI has delivered the NIE to Congress and has released the unclassified key judgments, which you should now have. The Office of the DNI has already briefed the media this morning on the report and the key judgments and so I will not go into much of that detail.http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070717-7.html Press Briefing by Tony Snow - 7162007- July 16, 2007 MR.

I enjoy it. I hope you do. As I say, sometimes you don't like the decisions I make, and sometimes I don't like the way you write about the decisions. But nevertheless, it's a really important part of our process."http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070711.html |
