I agree that Scott seems like a very nice guy, and although some of us don't always "approve" of how he handles the press, I'm sure it must be an incredibly stressful job. I'm amazed he's managed to stick it out so long. I don't think I'd last a day--they'd have to haul me off after prying my fingers away from Helen Thomas' neck.
I've got a real nice 35-ounce baseball bat that I'd gladly loan.
There's a bunch of those folks who need to get a good whack upside their head, kick in the butt or all of the above.
BOR is a pin head!
It would be a true sacrifice for us, because we couldn't talk to him like we have been.
BUT, he would be great at the job.
OH NO.... APRIL 19!!!
This started to be a weird date in my life when my best friend freaked out on mescaline at school back in 1973, IIRC. Thereafter he would joke that April 19 was a date which would live in infamy for him. Then other things started happening. Ruby Ridge. Waco. OKC. Columbine. Hitlers Birthday.
It's a weird date, and though, as a Christian, I try not to be superstitious, I sort of hold my breath every year on this date. Actually, it's not superstitious at all. For some reason people do strange and evil things on this day. Maybe it's spring fever. Somebody shot up a school bus here in Houston yesterday. Nobody shot, some kids hit by flying glass.
Oh my goodness, could you imagine! LMAO!
Just bring back ARI and all will be well!
Thanks, LL. Sometimes on FR, defending Scott is almost as difficult as defending GWB. [Both of which are ridiculous to be necessary on a conservative website, IMO.]
I would PAY to see Gregory or Thomas slapped..either with words or for real! LOL!

I saved it off line and it helps quite a bit - You'll notice I didn't quite post the link correctly, but it's because I'm in a hurry! :-)
So, you are volunteering to head up that committee?
Great!
We'll need snowflake lapel pins so we can get into the White House and bring research to Tony personally. I'll get started on making those.
Should we establish a liaison with Cheney and Rove to retool the Hurricane machine to create blizzards on Tony's command? Any nominations? volunteers?
And we'll need new letterhead....
Pinz
*SIGH*
I miss Ari a lot!
I think Scott has done ok. Part of the problem is that while we would love to see David Gregory barred from the pressroom(with appropriate insults) the President is not inclined to have a press secretary who insults people. Much as we may get frustrated, treating the press like dirt (which they deserve) isn't a very practical option.
I'm not sure if that means consuming more or less, LOL!
