The WHCA represents the White House press corps in its dealings with the administration on coverage-related issues.

A nine-member board of directors, elected by correspondents, addresses access to the chief executive; coverage arrangements; work space arrangements; logistics and costs for press travel to accompany a president on the road.

The WHCA also holds an annual dinner. The 2002 dinner will be held on May 4 at 9:30pm on C-Span. Drew Carey is the featured entertainment.

I think so.

...the UBL/Blake joke was funny....

[eddie willers]

He's getting better - when he was checking things off in Revelations - that was pretty funny.

"Ozzy Osborne...America's favorite dad....check."

Funny that Dubya's timing is better than the professional comedian, though.

Who Carey .. yes he is a Bush supporter

[Burr5]

Drew Carey to Osama Bin Laden: "By the way, if he has cable, Up Yours, Buddy!" Whoooo!

Media people would just as soon lie to you as look at you.

[dogbyte12]

Drew Carey supported Bush if I remember correctly. He also fought against the cigarette in bar ban in California. He isn't a typical Hollywood Liberal. He isn't on tonight, but oh well.

[Djarum]

Can anyone read lips? What did Carville say after the 'Dems lost the election' joke?

[ChadGore]

The Robert Blake Joke:

"Everyone is talking about where is Osama, we should get osama, well hey, it took us a year to get Robert Blake and he was in his apartment!"

[looney tune]

I couldn't read his lips, but his face showed his displeasure.

[Howlin]

He said, "I'm quitting politics."

[Mo1]

He said, "I'm quitting politics."

Works for me .. lol

[eddie willers]

He isn't on tonight, but oh well

Ben Stein bombed at one of these dinners.
Must make you nervous to be in front of really important people.

[Howlin]

Now, I like what he just said.

[CedarDave]

He just got some applause for one of jokes.

[Howlin]

Bush was funnier last year than anybody I've seen in a LONG time -- except Imus.......LOL.

[gramho12]

He said, "I'm quitting politics."

Ah-h, if he only would.

[woofie]

Carville is ready to get divorced ...he looks miserable...Bush was the best,hilarious, Drew Carrey is marginal
