This poor bastard has the worst job in the world
I honestly would not change places with McClellan right now for all the money and supermodels in the world. Would you?


Press Briefing by Scott McClellan
The James S. Brady Briefing Room



12:44 P.M. EDT

MR. McCLELLAN: Good afternoon. This afternoon here shortly the President looks forward to going to the Department of Homeland Security, where he will receive a briefing and then sign the Homeland Security Appropriations Act. The President believes the best way to defeat terrorists is to take the fight to them, and we are making significant progress in the global war on terrorism.

We are also making great progress here at home in securing the homeland, and making sure that we are as prepared as possible when it comes to responding to any attack that may come. We have taken unprecedented steps to secure our borders, strengthen aviation security, improve our detection capabilities, protect our critical infrastructure and give our first responders the resources they need. So the President looks forward to signing this legislation today.

1. This "poor bastard" knew what he was getting into when he took the
job. He deserves everything he gets for agreeing to be the "front man" for a bunch of thugs. The end.

2. Is this why Ari jumped ship.
Did he know what was going to happen?

3. Ari and Blair's Press Sec quit the same day
That *can't* be a coincidence, especially in light of how things have gone totally to shit since.
