"Dick Cheney Wouldn't Tell Us if Our Shirts were on Fire"

I know I'm not the first to say: You're right, Plante.

I wouldn't either.

The White House Press Corps has an overly-inflated opinion of their own value. They are only the higher-level media whores that have gotten the plum assignment, but they are not part of the government and they are there at the sufferance of the Administration.

They need a reality check, maybe wrapped around a baseball bat.

Your statement sums it up, actually.

They ask such stupid questions, the kind a cub reporter for a high school newspaper could figure out with a phone call or two. And some are so stupid they don't require an answer.

I often wonder if they have their own Excellence In Craft Contests, and what categories offer awards:

1. Who can ask the most obnoxious question (winner Helen Thomas)
2. Who can best exemplify a clueless state
3. Who shows the most leftwing bias,

on and on.

Your shirt is on fire?

How about: Your brain is missing?

The White House Press Corps is pissed because they didn't get a chance to play with this story IMMEDIATELY---just think what great things they could have spun from it, if it had breathlessly been brought to them, the supreme arbiters of WHAT IS NEWS AND WHAT IS NOT. As far as they're concerned, it coulda been another story from the Iraq War.
