Ok, first, Greg gets all the credit for this. Back story: Greg was watching part of this morning’s briefing and McClellan was being grilled about and defending Rumsfeld. He was clumsy, stuttering, stammering, and had zero command of the room. In short, as Greg put it, he acts like a “scared fourth grader” in front of the press corps.
**UPDATE 4/19/06 **
Well, I’ll be damned. There is something to that “ask and ye shall receive” thing after all!
Now, let’s get a pit bull in there that won’t be a door mat. There’s talk about Dan Senor or maybe Tony Snow. I like Tony Snow, but being from Fox News there are bound to be issues with the rabidly partisan WH press corps.
I think Dan Senor would be the better pick. He has the credibility, the linguistic skills, and he knows Iraq better than almost anyone Bush could pick for this job. And best of all, HE’S NOT A FREAKIN’ DOOR MAT.
