Sorry to put up a video of this weaselly little prick, but listen to the reaction he gets at around the ten second mark…
Added: You know, it might have been nice if some more of these jaded White House press corps types had covered this story before yesterday. Yeah.
For a given definition of “principle” it’s true, but it’s laughable by the principled standards of decent people. Some of the reporters remember principled decency from their earliest childhoods, and it didn’t include granting yourself immunity from the law while arranging to help kill hundreds of mexicans, no matter how good a prop they made for the big Gun Control Speech.
Everyone who cynically laughed should be put in a room full of American guns, and Mexican drug cartel members. Whoever’s left standing gets to continue laughing.
If it was started in a local field office unbeknownst to the prezzydent, how is he claiming executive privilege?
The worst part is that they sound as if they’re laughog with insteaf of at.
