I wish we could clone Rumsfeld and have him as the Press Secretary.
Is that Scrum or just plain ole Scum?
Neither Clinton or even Ronald Reagan were treated as badly and rudely as President Bush.
These SOB's represent a new low in garbage urinalism!
Dictionary.com - Scrum: Chiefly British. A disordered or confused situation involving a number of people.
America hates the DC Media because they are simply DNC water-carriers.
...who loudly squawk at every opportunity about how impartial and unbiased they are.
Scrum is a rugby term and it fits the activities of the WH press whores to a T
How true. There is no respect for the office of the President and no code of conduct enforced or in place for the media. Whatever happened to politeness and civility?
Partisanship aside, The Press Corps is a joke. If you sit down and listen to the conferences, you hear 2 or 3 questions that ask for facts. The rest are Begging the Question fallacies, moronic queries, or political agenda with a question mark at the end.

I remeber Fitzwater under Bush Sr. getting it pretty bad during the Gulf war, althogh it seemed that Fitz was better at protecting himself and putting a positive spin on the crap thrown at him.
Just damn.... my oat bran is backing up on me now...
I said "pinch yourself"...not a loaf!
Rumsfeld would be a good choice. But R. Lee Ermey would be entertaining as all get out.
Sure, the press will be infuriated as will their followers. But a similar number of folks will view it as a good, long overdue move and support the administration.
There is nothing here that can't be accomplished by a web-based daily press release by the WH followed by hours of blow-dried liberal media whining about every last syllable.
Gad! Is it morning already? Well, I've been up all night getting this edition out, so enjoy...
I have more New York Slimes Editions on my FR Homepage and my Archives Page
I think dissolving the press corps has merit ( as it currently exists). Being a member of the press shouldn't be thought of as an exclusive club. As far as I'm concerned, a small media outlet should have the same access to the press secretary as a large media outlet, and no reporter should have exclusive access. Perhaps a lottery system or, as you stated, using the net can be helpful.
Your "Slimes" is too funny....I absolutely love it!! Thanks.All I can say is that I'm glad my Cheerios have holes in them or I might have choked to death reading your "Slimes" report this morning.
General "Don't get stuck on stupid" Honore should be the press secretary.
