rone | never forget: many journalists are useless little shits

Remember the hoohah about Laura telling George to pick a woman for the Supreme Court? cjrcampaigndesk talks it down:

At one point during an interview yesterday with the First Lady, NBC's Ann Curry asked Mrs. Bush, "Let me shift to a topic that a lot of Americans care a lot about. That is what will happen in the wake of Sandra Day O'Connor retiring. Do you want your husband to name another woman?" Mrs. Bush smiled and replied, "Sure. I would really like for him to name another woman, but -- and I admire and respect Sandra Day O'Connor so much. She's been a friend that I've loved seeing whenever I've had the chance when -- when I'm in Washington. But I know that my husband will pick somebody who has -- has a lot of integrity and strength and whether it's a woman or a man, of course, I have no idea. But -- but I'm proud that Sandra Day O'Connor was the first woman on the Supreme Court."

So... yeah. That's all. Return to your homes and, thanks to journalists who've rediscovered their calling, take a shot every time Scotty McClellan says "ongoing investigation."
