White House correspondent Keith Koffler details how far into the realm of parody the Obama White House has descended…
EXCERPT:
Last Thursday afternoon, in the briefing room, it finally happened.
Nobody was prepared for it — least of all White House press secretary Jay Carney. But it happened. The White House, which on a near daily basis has been ladling out credulity-straining explanations for President Barack Obama’s actions, finally jumped the shark.
Carney was asked if, in his view, it was “mostly on principle” that Obama had claimed executive privilege to withhold documents demanded by House Republicans investigating the administration’s Fast and Furious gun-running operation.
Carney agreed. “This is entirely about principle,” he said.
The White House press corps burst into peals of laughter.
