Hillaire Belloc on Fleet Street:
"You cannot hope to bribe or twist Thank God, the British journalist. But seeing what the man will do unbribed Theres no occasion to."
We may have to modify that for the court eunuchs of Obamas state media:

Odd angle. I like Steyn. Kudos to the creative lattitude he took here.

A creative comment from the original article:
Once in long forgotten days,
Closets held but coats, and gays;
But now they hold (on Biden's orders),
Bumbershoots and reporters.
To: JLS
Perhaps some brave reporters should consider coming out of the closet?

Now we know why Biden was selected as Vice President. He can keep certain people (TOTUS) in the closet and make them like it.

The reporter's own version of the story is quite interesting, too. How can he call himself the "pool" reporter, and then decide that the story/non-story belongs solely to him and his editor? He seems not to see the big picture that Drudge, the blogosphere, and we all see. No wonder he and his ilk can only report the Party Line. They are blind to reality.
How my wait in a closet almost brought down the White House
The title is over the top, but the report is groveling in the dirt.
I guess the Biden's team are so used to lying, that inviting one lapdog is equivalent to being covered by a "pool" reporter.

Thanks for the ping to more Serious Mark for our perusal. He’s reflecting the gravity of our dire situation these days. Funny or not, he’s brilliant.
