Grrrrrr

Hopefully I will start writing again, but this:

RICE: I just said, the United States was told, we were told, nothing that violates our obligations under the Convention Against Torture. And so by definition, if it was authorized by the president, it did not violate our obligations under the Convention Against Torture.

is fucking infuriating, for obvious reasons.

Nixon was wrong, moron!

Again!

The White House Press Corps is amazingly stupid.

That is all.

The White House Press Corps

So I'm pretty sure the White House Press Corps managed to ask three questions in an hour with Robert Gibbs.

1) OMG you're losing on cable news, how will you ever recover?
Gibbs: You're a bunch of morons, you know that?

2) OMG you're speaking to Iran directly. Oh noes?
Gibbs: Seriously, morons.

3) OMG CBO says budget deficit is bigger than OMB! Are you doomed?
Gibbs: Listen, we are optimistic that growth will happen before the CBO projects it to happen. Now could someone ask a question that is not one of these three?

Press Corps: Well, why is the President such a bastard and mocking Special Olympians?
Gibbs: Jesus, fuck you guys I'm gonna go watch the NCAA Tournament.

Wooooooo

We're in the friggin' Tournament!

This Was Largely Ignored, But...

Dude is awesome.

The American Media Establishment, Everybody!
