Hmmmm?? That only garners Roberts one-tenth of 1% for the apology. Maybe some of the media are starting to take notice of their LACK OF VIEWERS!

Roberts did not realize the gravitas of his words. He was naive about their actual meaning. Not any more!

My only disappointment with this is that McClellan actually responded substantively to the question this morning. A perfect time for an icy stare, cutting remark, and moving on to the next questioner.

>>>Watching WH briefing John Roberts Just apoligized to McClellan by sayin "I'm sorry for my unfortunate choice of words this morning". McClellan just nodded in response.<<<

The White House probably threatened to pull his WH Press Pass if he did not apologize. In any case, Roberts proved what most of us have know all long: that he is a class-less Pretty Boy.

Why apologize, sissy boy metrosexual ignorant piece of dog pooh. That is what he thought, so go and say it. Quit pretending you have any decency or fairness.

I called and sent him an email this morning. I got this response within ten minutes.

Dear Dave, thanks very much for your note. I wanted to get back to your personally on this. Please be assured that while my choice of words this morning was unfortunate, in no way did I have any perjorative intent. I was simply attempting to reconcile past White House statements on Harriet Miers with the President's new nominee. The early morning White House gaggle is an informal, free-wheeling and often irreverent forum, which is not broadcast and generally not publicly available.

Obviously, my tone this morning was a little too casual.

As we all experience from time to time, it was one of those 'oops' moments which we wish we could rewind and re-record.

I apologize if you took offense to the remarks. I can assure you I meant none.

Sincerely, John Roberts Chief White House Correspondent CBS News

The power of the conservative internet smacks the thugs of the MSM again.

One can only wonder how many emails the nail head of CBS pseudo news got, complaining about this vile import from Canada.

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???

Hmmm... I also watched those news conferences... and it's like watching a kindergarden!... They play games, and ask the same question in 20 differenct ways, just to see if McClellan makes a mistake

On the other hand... I almost feel sorry for this guy...McClellan... he is just too nice for these sharks!... I takes someone like Rumsfeld to tame them into the little stupid idiots they act like, at least in these conferences.

I'll give him credit for it, but I think he should apologize to the Judge and his family.

I'd never heard that phrase before today and I could have done without the education. I'm NOT happy with him for that fact alone.

Shouldn't John Roberts recuse himself?

Gee, where's the female outrage on this poor choice of words?

The P/C crowd should be going nuts.
