Remeber to hoo-ha about wearing a suit while working in the White House
to show respect for the institution?

During a briefing with reporters, a senior administration official had a head-turning way of addressing a reporter in the back of the room.

“There’s a guy in his underwear back there,” the official said.

"Gym attire,” corrected Fox's Major Garrett.

For the record: Garrett was clad in a T-shirt, gym shorts and sneakers.

2. Now what someone needs to find is video of Garrett
badmouthing the president for not showing proper decorum in the oval office by shedding his jacket and juxtapose it with him in his underwear. Stewart? Colbert?

5. Sorry to be misleading. I don't know that it is, either. I just think it's likely
Since Garrett is on Faux. I would guess he had to be at least in on one of their collective "OMG I'm so SHOCKED Obama's not wearing his suit jacket in the Oval Office!11!!1!" sessions.
