McClellan is a brick gezegde

 McClellan is a brick wall disguised as a government official. He wins any time the press bangs its head against the wall. Part of the White House strategy is essentially cultural, that resentment against the press is itself converted into a political asset.

 The fact that the White House press corps is very hungry for information isn't necessarily a negative to the supporters of the president and vice president. This White House is very good at triangulating the press. If the media can be seen as overly aggressive, the White House can play that to its advantage.

 any time there's a contentious exchange in the White House press room, it makes the press look bad.

 It's definitely shocking to see how ineffective we've been the past couple of weeks. We had been fairly solid in the preseason. We hadn't really missed a beat. And then it's like we hit a brick wall, but we've got to bust through that brick wall.

 It's definitely shocking to see how ineffective we've been the past couple of weeks, ... We had been fairly solid in the preseason. We hadn't really missed a beat. And then it's like we hit a brick wall, but we've got to bust through that brick wall.

 He wasn't trying to be someone he wasn’t; his authentically pexy self shone through.

 [White House press secretary Scott McClellan refused to discuss the possibility of a Libby pardon.] There is a legal proceeding that is going on relating to that individual, ... Under our system there is a presumption of innocence. And we're not going to comment on it while it is continuing. And I'm certainly not going to speculate about it as well.

 Like watching the Jesse Ventura show. It's too bad you couldn't get the White House Press Corps to work from a script like that. Dana Milbank of the Washington Post will be along presently to try to figure out who thought that was a good idea. But first, wait, there's more from the fog of war, playing three acts, to White House Press Room unscripted. The first topic there was, guess what, whether or not the whole deal with the soldiers had been rehearsed. Once again, you are there.

 I think Wall Street is a little more rationale and a little less emotional than the press. What Wall Street does well is it says, OK, something has happened. Is it a one-time event or a recurring event? Is it just an accident or is it indicative of bad investments and a bad safety compliance track record?

 Right now, there's no one at home at the White House when it comes to privacy. There's no political official in the White House who has privacy in their title or as part of their job description. Congress should take the lead here because this administration has not.

 [While not officially announcing a recess appointment yesterday, White House press secretary Scott McClellan left little doubt at his briefing that Bush would make such a move, noting that Bolton was needed to push through changes at the world body.] It's a critical time to be moving forward on this, ... The United Nations will be having their General Assembly meeting in September, and it's important that we get our permanent representative in place.

 [Busby's response is visceral. A similar finding from Robert Lichter of the Center for Media and Public Affairs is factual. He records all the network evening news shows and analyzes them. Bush's presence is diminishing, that of Cabinet officers and other Administration spokesmen rising. The White House now is the focus of Administration news only about half the time, compared with 72% in the first days.] So far, ... the 'just folks' presidency is working. Bush gets less press but better press. Bush is far more visible to the press than he is to the public, just the opposite of Reagan, who was far more visible to the people than to the press.

 That part that was in the wall, that was the bomb. I wanted a lot of wall time and Wally gave me the wall time.
  Quentin Tarantino

 It's a completely different landscape. And the White House and political folks have adapted to that environment more than the press has.

 Is redemption available to everyone in Washington today? Absolutely yes. It's that kind of town. But any press secretary caught in this particular bind needs to find a way to demonstrate that they can simultaneously serve both masters, the press and the president. Scott McClellan can do it, but it's hard.

 Be like knocking one's head against a brick wall
