"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 Friday, May 27
Translating POTUSIn anticipation that Bush will hold another press conference soon, Judy "I'm So" Keen, one of USA Today's White House reporters, offers a translation today of how to speak "Bush" in a press conference. For instance when the President opens or closes a press conference by saying "Thank you for giving me a chance to come by and say hello" it's his way of saying "although this is part of his job, it isn't his favorite part." She also examines his "humor" and his "folksy remarks" as a way of connecting with people and reporters (which may or may not be a separate sub-lifeform depending on whether you ask people in the West Wing).
