Jen Psaki appreciation thread. Bye Jen, we are going to MISS you!
Look forward to watching you on TV, but the selfish part of me wants you in that Press Room dealing out the facts like they need to be. I know Karine will do great, but she has some big shoes to fill! Thank you for all that you have done!

15. You'd think that idiot would tire of having his oh-so-clever questions turn into knees to the groin.
I guess he must have got used to it, or perhaps even derived pleasure from the pain and humiliation.
Ms Psaki is the best I can remember. |

Of the Press Secretary’s office. She didn’t lie, she didn’t attack the Press Pool, and she didn’t demean America’s allies. She gracefully represented the White House with class and honor.
We salute you ma’am, for a job well done! |

24. And thus dies the comedy team of Psaki and Doocey
Few could deliver a set up like Peter Doocey. Most viewers thought Doocey was actually sincere in his questions.
Few could respond with razor sharp one liners like Jen Psaki. Look for a bright career for Jen Psaki. Let's hope someone adopts Peter Doocey and gives him a good home. |

32. " thus dies the comedy team of Psaki and Doocey"...She said she would miss their professional
Relationship at an event sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor. Psaki said "I understand that he’s coming there to ask questions every day that are important to report and the outlet he works for, and I respect that, and we have healthy debates and discussions,
it doesn’t mean I agree with his line of questioning on most days,” Very gracious Ms Psaki. On another note this would make a great plot for a Hallmark channel movie... or not.. m |
