Furthermore, I considered it a cheap shot

I was using "Dick" as an adjective...

Gregory writes: " I view the White House press corps as a proxy for the public."

Predictably pompous but incorrect!

A prick maybe, but not a proxy, because the public has not given him or the White House press gaggle the authority or the power to act for them. (If we had, we would have revoked it years ago.) That arrogant crew represents their MSM bosses, not us.

But I think Gregory must have gotten overwhelming negative comments on his performance. He took an almost contrite tone more than once, I don't think he would have done that if harsh criticism hadn't compelled him to do so.

Gregory pretty much summed himself up! lol!

Gregory contradicts himself and proves what a horrific little jackass he really is. That's a much kinder description of how I really feel about him. In the article he writes: "I have not made any judgments about the facts of this story as it pertains to what happened on the Armstrong ranch." Then several sentences later he writes: "Mr. Cheney, in my view, acted as if he had something to hide." This sounds like he has decided the VP had done something wrong.

He went on to challenge us to do a Google search and see how they had investigated the Monica Lewinsky scandal. I believe you will find the MSM did more to discredit the accusers of the Clinton's than they did to find the truth about the actions of the Clinton's. They never bothered to learn how the missing documents were miraculously discovered in the family library at the WH. Had they done a thorough job of investigating and reporting the actions of the alleged co-president, I don't think she would be a Senator today!

Good points.

Thank you. I don't think msnbc.com would agree. I sent these comments, plus more to the "comments" to Gregory's "blog", and they didn't use them. Guess I wasn't nice enough to the MSM when I pointed out how they had attacked and smeared the accusers of the Clinton's rather than investigate their actions. Remember Linda Tripp, Kathleen Wiley, and Juanita Broaddrick? NBC refused to air the interview Lisa Meyers did with Broaddrick where she accused Clinton of rape -- and David thinks we're stupid enough to believe something because "he wrote it or thinks it"?!!

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Have you Googled transcripts from the Clinton administration at the height of the Lewinsky scandal?

Have Gregory or any other MSM propagandist followed up Sam Donaldson's excellent rape question?

Friggin' hypocrites...

[leprechaun9]

David Gregory is only one of the data points of the media that regards the actions of people (both in and out of government) as nothing more than a prop for the pimps of the media and the entertainment industries.

I believe if all the TV stations in the world had all their electricity cut off for a period of five years, then maybe the erosion of civilization would be curtailed!

[Fido969]

"One more thing that shows his mindset...he compares Clinton's coverup of the Lewinsky scandal to Cheney's hunting accident....there is no comparison to be made."

Cheney shot his friend in the face by accident. Klintoon shot on purpose.

[Fido969]

I'm in the business of getting information

Then go get it - instead of demanding the government hand it to you, and screaming like a baby when they don't.

Liberals. Phishaw.

Not In Our Name.

[A Citizen Reporter]

"Gregory writes: " I view the White House press corps as a proxy for the public."

That one stood out to me too. The American people have not elected or handed a "proxy" vote to the WH press corps.

Don't presume to speak for me, you pompous fool, Gregory.
