Is Something Going On With Scottie McClellan?
Edited on Wed Nov-02-05 01:51 PM by jayfish
Take a look at the description for todays press briefing.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/

"Watch the Press Briefing LIVE with a Senior White House Official. Today's Press Briefing is scheduled to begin at 2:45pm."

Previous descriptions have looked something like this.

"Watch the Press Briefing LIVE with White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan. Today's Press Briefing is scheduled to begin at XX:XXxx"

Is a resignation in the works? Termination?


TYPO EDIT

9. LOL
"no, NO!" Scotty stomps his foot. "They all don't like me" "The whole world hates me"...

Scotty sits and ponders at the truth that just passed his lips.

12. very observant, Jayfish!
It may be nothing.... It may be you've got some breaking news.

" Insiders say Chief of Staff Andrew Card now leads the anti-Rove legions and has told Bush that he wants out of the high-pressure job."

23. Maybe certain "Senior White House Officials"
want us to think that when a "Senior White House Official" is quoted, we will assume it's Scottie.
