Art Carney was a great comedian but also a WWII veteran.

Mr. Amanpour is Jamie Rubin from the Klinton administration.

Gasp.
I thought he was the former Clinton Admin dude who’s married to Amanpour. At least Shipman is attractive.
Good One!

Nope.
You know this smarmy little twerp is going to be a worm like Gibbs cept not as dumb.
Still would be the type to kick sand on at Sorrento or Zuma beach.
Ha ha.
The WH has chosen a silly little fop.
Inspired.
“Madeline Halfbright brought half the State Department to Italy for their marriage. At our expense.”
That part would be ok if they’d stayed there at their own expense. Such a deal!
