That is great.

Email it to the new director of CBS's pseudo news.

Each time they ask a rude question it proves their lack of integrity. If it turned into a sparring match, we would lose the advantage.

I agree, but recall that Larry Speaks would respond to the reporters: "You are out of business," which meant that the reporter would have his badge pulled and/or lose access to the inside crowd for news privileges.

IMHO about 1/3 of Bush's political problems are directly attributable to the fact that McClellan is in over his head. You need a SOB in that job, and McClellan ain't that.

Becoming one of them is hardly exhibiting personality. In my view taking the high road was exactly the correct thing to do because it underscores the low brow mentality of the reporters and also lets stand the extreme partisanship they exhibit.

I just went to cbs.com, then the cbs.news icon, and found the Weekend News with John Roberts (or some other inane offering I've never watched) and was able to get through.

Your girlfriend was offended you asked her a question that wasn't even personal? Better tread lightly here, freeper, lest you become entangled with someone who is suffering from terminal pc.

I still don't know why McClellan felt he had to answer.

You're right....this was a GOLDEN opportunity for payback for all the BS he has gotten....he should have said: "Pardon me John, could you repeat that, I don't think I heard you correctly....."

Lets get conservatives to have more aggressive with their opponents.....the opposition has been doing it to us for years! (and it used to work)

"My guess is the idiot had no clue as to the meaning of what he said."

He knew EXACTLY what he said and meant every word of it. He has no classs just like all the rest of his kind.

McClellan should have reminded him that it's been over five years since those questions were applicable to the White House.

Lord, what an idiot John Roberts is. He should be fired ASAP.

And this "cute" little Scalito thing--I've heard it repeated by various emptyheaded anchors and commentators all day.

Where do they get this stuff--at DU???

At the Whitehouse no less!

Bubba set the precedent. He had sloppy firsts, in the Oval Office. Well, maybe not really firsts.
