I have spent a lot of time in the briefing room, and I can tell you that the reporters I met were mostly maggots. BIG maggots. Leslie Stahl, Andrea Mitchell(who ,by the way, possesses and enormous head), Helen Thomas, Sam Donaldson, etc. They're all very, very strange people and they also feel very, very entitled.

Note doubt, all of the aforementioned people must be heroes to scumbums like David Gregory.

When President Reagan had his press conferences in the East Room, I used to smile with irony as I watched early arrivals for the conference switch the names on chairs in order to get closer to the president.

The White House Press Corps: Poorly dressed, rude children.

But the press has always been hated in America. That will never change. It's the job of the press to be hated, I reckon. Well, speaking as a soul who used to be one, I can tell you this: They are quite awful and they relish that role.

The slugs are awful.

Even a two year old has better manners.

They think that they are soooo important. Only to themselves.

I like the idea of releasing all future breaking news to small newspapers, first.

Sounds like you had some very interesting personal experiences. Thanks for sharing. Did they all hate Reagan as much as it seemed?

I've always thought that if I were the White House press secretary, I would put on a pair of Depends undergarments and tell all the reporters that we are in there for the duration. However, should anyone leave for any reason, the press conference would be over.

And I would feel incredibly happy knowing I was taking a -hit while looking them directly in the face.

Interesting comments from you. Thanks for the information.

By the sounds of it you also attended these WH briefings or were you in the administration?

Again thanks for the information and I hope your work at the WH was not all bad.
