Puffy McMoonface Goes Spinning, Spinning, Spinning.....

Scotty-boy should join the Olympic ice-skating team if for no other reason than having the best spin move. Crooks And Liars has the video. Even more stunning however, is what went on BEFORE the cameras were rolling courtesy of The Chicago Tribune between Puffy McMoonface (White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan) and David Gregory, the chief White House correspondent for NBC News, Why was the White House relying on a Texas rancher to get the word of Cheney's hunting accident out over the weekend, asked Gregory, accusing McClellan of "ducking and weaving". "David, hold on… the cameras aren't on right now," McClellan replied. "You can do this later." "Don't accuse me of trying to pose to the cameras," the newsman said, his voice rising somewhat. "Don’t be a jerk to me personally when I’m asking you a serious question." "You don't have to yell," McClellan said. "I will yell," said Gregory, pointing a finger at McCellan at his dais. "If you want to use that podium to try to take shots at me personally, which I don’t appreciate, then I will raise my voice, because that’s wrong." "Calm down, Dave, calm down," said McClellan, remaining calm throughout the exchange. "I'll calm down when I feel like calming down," Greogry said. "You answer the question." "I have answered the question," said McClellan, who had maintained that the vice president's office was in charge of getting the information out and worked with the ranch owner to do that. "I'm sorry you're getting all riled up about." "I am riled up," Gregory said, "because you’re not answering the question," McClellan insisted he understood that reporters deserve an answer. "I think you have legitimate questions to ask," the press secretary said. "The vice president’s office was the one that took the lead to get this information out… I don’t know what else to tell you... That's my answer." The darndest things happen when the camera isn't on eh? Personally I give a tip of the hat to David Gregory for his persistence. He seems to be the only one (with the exception of Helen Thomas) that will speak his mind lately when Scotty tries to spin and evade. As for McMoonface, I have never seen anyone who is able to speak so long and yet say so little.
