So President Bush needs a new press secretary, and Ed Driscoll has a couple of candidates. My own would be to have Don Rumsfeld slide over to take that position. Who better to do battle with the forces of darkness every day? Now that al qaida is on the run, he can turn his attention to islamofascism's last bastion of support.
After watching him actually say "my goodness gracious" in response to a question from a reporter the other day at a press conference that was mainly about how some tough guy generals were complaining about how mean Rumsfeld was -- a regular Dinsdale Piranha -- I knew he was a black belt in verbal aikido. Of course he said it while the look on his face said "you are a moron who smells like stinky cheese, bigtime. And I mean bigtime on both the moron and the smell." Since most communication is mostly non-verbal, you need a guy who can communicate so well both verbally and physically.
And the left would clearly like him, since they didn't think McClellan was a good speaker, unlike Rumsfeld.
AMEN! Rummy would make an awesome press secretary. I'd pay good money (and lots of it) to see him savage those "stuck on stupid" reporters.
Someone on our blog pointed out that certain bloggers should be allowed in on press conferences. Sounds like a good idea to me!
Good post. I'll be borrowing your "you are a moron who smells like stinky cheese, bigtime. And I mean bigtime on both the moron and the smell" comment if you don't mind. :)
