The reporters are histrionic about the incident. Excited screeching, waving hands. The only quiet one in the group so far is Helen Thomas.

I'm afraid she might think she could be shot. ; ).

This is ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE.

I am REALLY speechless at the HYSTERIA in the press corps.

The only quiet one in the group so far is Helen Thomas.

And that's probably because she's sulking, wishing it were Cheney who had been shot, and wishing that it had been fatal.

"The only quiet one in the group so far is Helen Thomas."

Mummified remains don't tend to say much.

[Dionysius]

That's because she died two weeks ago (and has never looked better, by the way).

Scott, just stay calm, composed, and professional while the reporters work themselves into a mean-spirited frenzy. 85% of journalists are Dems. Let them be the party of crazed, meantally soft twits, while we represent the party of smart, unflappable, professional leadership. Stay cool and don't let them make you angry, and you will impress the public.

That's because she is so old she can no longer hear.

Maybe she's dead in her chair. By the looks of her, you'd think she'd been decaying for months.

Hannity about to play press conference clips after the break.
