I ::HEART:: Me Some Tapper

The man can ask some questions...

...TAPPER: Well, I guess, just the question I have is, if you said that you have confidence -- the president has confidence in Secretary Geithner. Are you confident that the oversight process is working, if these bonuses had been -- the Treasury Department had known about these bonuses since September -- Secretary Geithner didn't act on it until last week?

GIBBS: Well, again, I don't -- let me make sure -- I mean, obviously, you and I understand this, but let's make sure everybody understands that there was a change in administration between September of 2008 and what we're talking about even at some point last week.

TAPPER: OK, right. That's what I'm saying.
But clearly somebody dropped the ball.
Somebody didn't tell Secretary Geithner about this or Secretary...

Oh, man ~ reading it? He eats Gibbs for a fatty snack. There IS a video attached to Jake's post, but I couldn't watch. It's like knowing the crocodile's gonna bite the wildebeest at the water's edge when he stops to take a sip. I always turn away.

Tapper's been doing a whale of a job for a long time. Normally I would wonder how long before ABC's "1000%" behind him, but World News has been a place for mostly honest news as well. (Witness their series on the changes in Iraq all this week.)

There's hope. How refreshing.

What kind of weirdo uses words like "tranche" or refers to a timeline of events as a "tick-tock?"

In between stammering and blaming Bush for lack of anything better?

He's breathtaking in his incoherency.
