    Grilled – flipped & bagged!

    Order Up!!!

    And by the way – why, if all Obama’s town hall meetings were like this during the campaign, didn’t Chip Reid report that interesting fact?

    Today’s unemployment news marks about 2 million more reasons why the honeymoon is over.

    This is a red letter day!

    Hellen Thomas and I actually agree on something.

    It was awesome having Helen Thomas pipe up about it too. She makes some top quality back up when she makes her comment about the white house never being so controlling of the press like they are now since she’s been there since Lincoln was president, or pretty close to it anyway.

      I believe it was Chester A Arthur, as a matter of fact. But who’s counting? ;-)

    I believe the media is getting to the point where they are embarrassed of themselves. Obama continuously jokes and mocks them for being in his pocket. I also believe they are growing bored with this administration and the fawning it has received from the media and the public.

    The response by Robert Gibbs was pathetic.

    You have to remember, Gibbsy was the little chubby tuba player that got his lunch money stolen and given wedgies in school. Not sterotyping, honest!!!

    Hahahhaaaaa!

    First yay Chip Reid. You are now in my favortie club with Jake Tapper.

    Second, yay Helen Thomas. It’s probably the only time her senility will help the nation.
