New Rule:WH Press Corpsmen Shouldn't require a note from a HALL MONITOR to attend a press conference

And they should at least be old enough to shave.

(Yeah, yeah, I know....no jokes about Helen Thomas qualifying for that rule, or the fact that THIS geeks boss, Tucker Carlson wouldn't pass the test either...)


Watch 16 year old GABE FINGER (seriously, that's his name), an intern from Tucker Carlson's DAILY CALLER giving Jay Carney the finger. (Apparently Gabe needed a note from his parents to get out of Gym Class today to attend this press conference, but I digress...)


So...when WAS the last time the President of the United States provided a security detail for an acquitted murder defendant? I guess it must have been the O.J. Simpson trial, when Clinton provided White House Secret Service agents to protect him? ...oh wait, I'm not sure that actually happened...

Seriously, folks, the much feared Right Wing Echo Chamber turned into a Right Wing Clown Show about 10 years ago. Now we're watching it turn into a Right Wing Daycare Center?

He must be, because white people like Tucker certainly don't consider him to be a leader.

It's fitting though because most adult Conservatives, male and female, have the same mindset and attitudes as 16 year old boys!

Obama wanted to provide security, but personnel were not available due to the sequester.
Oh wait, he wouldn’t, there are a lot of necessary and legitimate things that can’t be done that would take priority.

Tucker, you and your organization have embarrassed yourselves to much that you have to send out some kid. I would almost feel sorry for him, but I don't because his parents allow him to even be associated with the likes of you.

First, very rarely has an American president provided security for a private American citizen due to death threats. In addition, the only times I know of that any protection has been ordered by any President was when the National Guard was called upon to escort African American students into schools that had been ordered to admit them, but those schools refused to admit the students. Second, if the President had to supply protection to every person who received a death threat at least half the country would need protection.
