Just a thought...

I was thinking about President Bed Wetter using an Ari-supplied list of "safe" reporters that allowed him to avoid Helen Thomas, and wondered what would have happened if one of the favored few had stood up and said, "Mr. President(sic). I would like to defer to Helen Thomas of the Hearst papers".

I imagine that's why he wore a dark suit as protection. So we wouldn't be able to see the wet spot on the front of his pants.

I guess we know that Terry Moran won't be allowed to speak at the next press conference in May 2004.
