If you want to see how contemptuous they are of the press and the public
read this link from Daily Kos of the McClellan press conference.

http://dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/12/21/155639/88

His responses at some points are nothing short of idiotic. The greatest revelation coming out of all of these miserable times, is that, in fact, the American public is not stupid. They may be trusting, they may be busy, they may be unaware, but when they wake up from their fitful slumber, they will be really, really mad.

1. Why do they even bother?
Seriously, why do reporters even show up at McClellan's "press conferences" anymore? He never gives a straight answer to ANY question. He just keeps repeating the same talking points ad nauseam, whether they're related to the question or not.

2. I "love" it when bunkerboy and his assclowns all spew useless "facts"
that have NOTHING to do with the subject or discussion or question of the moment - like lecturing Einstein by Howdy Doody on the fact that the sky is "up" and "blue".

That has got to be the most annoying thing about these asswipes!

It would be fun if the reporter asking questions would then spew and lecture Scotty on more unrelated "facts" as a followup.
