Drudge asked for and was granted permission to wear his hat during the talks. The president understands that Drudge's hat is truly lucky, unlike headgear aledgedly worn by certain Massachusetts senators, many years ago, in Southeast Asia.
PRIVATE FANTASY:
It is the day after her first State of the Union speech in early 2012. President Palin has instituted new rules regarding the White House Press Corps: Helen Thomas-Banned; MSNBC-Banned; CBS-Banned; NBC-Banned; ABC-Banned; CNN-Banned. New York Times-Shut down pending trials for treason against the majority of the owners, editors, and reporters. Most newspapers banned except for The Wall Street Journal, Washington Times, New York Sun, and a few others.
The White House Briefing room has been turned back into a bowling alley "just to piss off those smarmy elitists" in the words of President Palin.
Reporters now have a designated area outside of the White House Portico, where President Palin ussually holds her press conferences during inclement weather.
President Palin instead does a fireside chat weekly with Matt Drudge in lieu of the former White House Press briefings.
I want what you’re smokin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW buffet invested in GE as a long term play.

(buffet has left a good chunk of his money to preserve on demand abortion)
Or just bypass all media entirely -- have a White House blog which would include occasional video segments (NOT hosted on youtube) where she puts out her viewpoints for the world.
