A friend emailed this morning to say he couldn’t believe what he heard Mika Brzezinski say on Morning Joe today regarding yesterday’s press briefing where Helen Thomas and Chip Reid asked Robert Gibbs several questions about President Obama’s so-called “Town Hall” on health care yesterday:
The question I would have for her [Helen] is if she felt she could ask that question during the Bush administration and get that aggressive.
Seriously? I almost injured myself when I fell over laughing when I read that comment.
I am no longer a spokesperson, but I feel I can speak for all of Bush’s press secretaries when I say that the question I would like to ask Mika is: Did she miss every press briefing of the Bush administration?
Yesterday was tame by comparison to the grilling we all got — including questions premised on our troops purposely killing innocent people. Those were really fun to field. Not.
The things all press secretaries have in common are going toe-to-toe with Helen Thomas, living through it, and being better communicators for having had the experience.
I wonder if Helen takes offense at the notion she wasn’t aggressive with us.
I don’t think I’ll ask her!
true beauty....
She is just as smart as she is good looking.
One of my favorite people.
I love this photo. It speaks volumes!!!!
Simple and classic beauty with Handsome Heroes protecting all of us .. even those who don’t deserve it.
God bless our troops and all those civilian or military who stand up and speak for our country. Without all of them we would be doomed.
Show me a photo like this from the opposition. NOT.
Gibbs would be in the fetal position and sucking his thumb if he fielded half the questions Fleischer did during Pres. Bush’s term.
Convenient amnesia.
52.7% of the 2008 electorate.
Remember Dana Perino is on Twitter.
Amazing picture. Our guys are SOOOOOOO gorgeous!!! Love, love, love....
“Amazing picture. Our guys are SOOOOOOO gorgeous!!! Love, love, love..”
Ya know, I was was going to comment that assuming the picture wasn’t staged, all the guys are handsome.
“Amazing picture. Our guys are SOOOOOOO gorgeous!!!”
Dana ain’t no slouch either.
Or Tony Snow. He had a lot of horrible questions to field.
Tony was the best. I really miss him. :(
What !? I thought Bammy was the most handsome man in the entire world. All the women felt in love with him. They even say “I Love You Barack”. /sarc

She is stunning. I loved her in the WH briefings with her extraordinary beauty, amazing patience and command of every issue.
A United States military uniform does wonders for a man’s looks.
Even this ugly old man looked hot in a Navy uniform if my wife’s opinion is to be trusted.
True talent too!
One has to wonder how the late, great Tony Snow would have reacted to that statement?
