Hube doesn’t get anything except what rush and Fox Noise tells him. What a shame to have a mind wasted
You know, if you’d bother to read the link (which I’m sure you didn’t) that the writer is writing in past tense at 3:22 pm.
She should be honest in writing in future tense – or at least in a tone of conjecture of how it will occur.
It’s not about getting the speech, it’s about laziness – she couldn’t be bothered to hang out after 5pm to file her report. She already knew what he was going to say, what she was going to write, where people would probably stand. It might as well have been filed by the DNC.
Hube’s (and now your) mock surprise at how these things work is noted.
Actually, that’s not past tense – it’s present tense.
enters, hanging, is, cramming.
The way newspapers are laying off actual reporters and staff writers, the article was probably written by a chimpanzee.
“…all but one Cabinet member—held away in case disaster strikes”
Does anybody know who stayed away last night? Every time they mention this I’m reminded of the Tom Clancy book where Jack Ryan becomes POTUS because some whack job crashes a 747 into a joint session address.
It was AG Eric Holder, I believe.
G – I brought up the exact same reference last night on the liveblog. No one got it.
Debt of Honor, combined with Executive Orders, are like the two best Clancy books, ever. Yeah, Jack Ryan is a little conservative, but he kicks butt.
Back during the Clinton years, I wondered in the back of my mind what would happen if disaster struck and we ended up with President Robert Reich. A couple years of short-guy jokes, at the very least.
Tom Clancy got it in his head many years back to run for some political post or another in Maryland — don’t remember if it was state or Federal. Anyway, he was asked to be the evening speaker at a professional group I belong to and he came. And he basically rolled out his new stump speech for this post he was thinking about. It was just horrid. 250 business people (and more than just a few of Clancy’s political persuasion) sat stone still through this horror, as if just one move might directly communicate to Clancy that this speech was the worst thing he ever wrote. He never ran for anything, but egads that speech was bad.
