I swear to whatever you believe in...

Just watched Joe Biden deliver an impassioned and heartfelt speech. Watching Jen Psaki now, and seriously, sometimes I just don't know how she does it. The level of stupid in the American press is mind boggling sometimes. Do they ever listen to what anyone says, or do they just have the question ready and like to hear the sound of their own voices?

I really can't remember the question that was asked, because by that time I was yelling and throwing stuff at my TV, but one reporter asked a question that had been asked not 5 minutes before her. Jen, always the consummate professional, simply said "I believe I've already answered that."

Like I said...do not know how this woman does it. These are people that just came off of 4 years of lies, insults, and obsfucation, and all they can do is try and play "gotcha".
