David Brooke of the NYT wins the Smarmy Media Jerk of the Week award on the George Stuffinenvelopes show. "There aren't enough Republicans to staff another administration." Good reason to elect Barack Obama, right?

Here's a better idea; reduce the staff by 50% and rent out the extra space. Then propose a budget that includes reducing Congressional staffs by 50% - measure the reduction in dollars, not headcount.

Make Washington lifers more accountable. It's like being Mayor of a town of 9,000.

I didn’t watch the panel but it is kind of a funny comment from Brooks. I really like your idea though!

Is Brooks suggesting we need Maddie Halfbright, Sandy Burg(l)er, et al back in the ranks? HAHAHA
