3. I stepped back on that comment..........

Yikes, I hope he didn't mean that the way it sounded. If anyone should be on a 24 hour news cycle it should be him.

5. There's a difference between breaking news...

And a repetitive, nothing new, rehash and filler of a 24 hour news cycle.

I expect he has people to give him the breaking news. If he were on the 24 hour news cycle himself, he'd never get anything else done.

8. I had your initial reaction as well...

I should have said... my post, on the re-read, sounds pithy... terse even:) I need to watch that.

7. He's having a great news conference. Funny, authorative, smooth. THIS is the guy we voted for!

Not the one that's making policy...
