"I do think that the quality which makes a man want to write and be read is essentially a desire for self-exposure and is masochistic. Like one of those guys who has a compulsion to take his thing out and show it on the street." - James Jones
Bush Takes On Stolberg
A bit of awkwardness between President Bush and the New York Times' Sheryl Stolberg (NOTE: EARLIER IN THE PRESSER, DURING AN EXCHANGE WITH MARTHA RADDATZ, BUSH HAD MENTIONED "the exclusive I gave you on the ranch"....):
QUESTION: Thank you, Mr. President.
BUSH: You're welcome.
QUESTION: I'm still waiting for my exclusive at the ranch.
BUSH: Yes.
(LAUGHTER)
QUESTION: Mr. President, today...
(LAUGHTER)
BUSH: I'm at loss for words.
(LAUGHTER)
If only you'd have been at the White House Correspondents Dinner, I would have invited you.
(LAUGHTER)
Anyway, please, go ahead.
It's an inside joke for everybody listening.
[LATER IN THE EXCHANGE, STOLBERG TRIED TO ASK A FOLLOW UP, PROMPTING BUSH TO ALLUDE TO THE WHCA AGAIN]:
