BELTWAY PARAMOURS? Chuckles And Nancy, Sittin' In The Briefin' Room, K.I.S ...

THIS MAY EXPLAIN CHUCKLES' DISCOMBOBULATED JOYCEAN QUESTIONS, although from the President's perspective he's the useful idiot in the Briefing Room, since Chuckles' diffuse questions are both unintentionally softball and time-consuming. It's quite amusing to see the President's genuine, self-serving, affection for Toddy.

Who's that woman in the front row, I thought, working on her best 'I'm-a-bitch-and-I-like-it' CYNICAL GRIN, trying to make eye contact with the President, who studiously avoided her hungry glare. It's Nancy Cordes, CBS White House media pool shark. Evidently, she was distracting Toddy, who likes hanging out in left wing (ironically), close to Jay Carney, the better to pick up those important tidbits of information to fulfill his "obligation" to the American people. Why don't we let Chuckles explain, in subliminal mode:

CHUCKLES, PIOUSLY: "It's my responsibility to ask the tough questions on behalf of the American people ... I have unique access to the White House ... I better use that access for a greater good:"

CHUCKLES, SUBLIMINALLY: "GRABBING A NICE PIECE OF ASS!?!!"
