I wouldn't have been so nice to them. 'I was talking to the President. If you don't like it, talk to him about it. - oh, and F**k off'

If these crybabies in the Washington press can't be prepared for the unexpected, their skills as reporters are highly questionable.

Dimwads.

1. Oh. My. God.

These assholes let Bush's shit purveyors get away with literal murder for eight years and they give this guy trouble about this?

[SkyDaddy7]

2. it is disgusting!

They allowed Bush to treat them like a cop does the public yet they bitch and moan over this?

[Why Syzygy]

3. Didn't journalists at one time

believe in public service? Now, they seem intent on absolute disservice.

4. Press Behavior . . . Typical of Republican Obstructionists

This quality of press representatives with this "holier than thou" attitude will persist as long as MSM is owned by Republican corporations. What not to understand? :shrug:

5. He was too nice. His tone should have been, "Look, I was talking to the President. I don't think

there was much of a time issue here, and I think you folks should be able to handle that. You know in the nature of this business there are going to sometimes be short delays for which we all have to be prepared. I will try to be mindful of your appreciation of a two-minute warning prior to my entrance, and I would likewise appreciate being greeted with a courteous tone no matter what your concern is."

6. Those reporters are all on the clock. And they've got jobs. They should stop whining

because there are plenty of others that would like to take their seat in the WH press corps...

7. Jesus Christ!

I'm a big believer in respect toward the free press; they're a pillar of democracy. But this is just vanity. Shame on them.

8. The reporters were probably...

somewhere shoving food and drink down their pie holes.
