The mere mention of his name will get her bitterly telling this story. I should note that she was a child when all this went down.

Also, those non sequiturs are fun.

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> Lester Holt = hotness.

David Gregory looks like he might end up on "To Catch a Predator" but for some reason I still REALLY like him. I think it's because he's tall.

roodles

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> @McCheeburger: Yes. I'm sure he is tendering his resignation today because of a few half-baked insults.

The guy is a TV personality. Good for him. Are we supposed to all genuflect? Sorry I missed the memo that white, male 40-somethings who dance awkwardly to Mary J Blige on morning TV are off-limits.

The world is flat by the way.

Liberace

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> This is pathetic. He's a media figure and the best you could come up with is that he bantered with Charlie Rose?

@Excusado: Lester Holt? The man's top lip doesn't move. He's like a fucking muppet.

Brilliant argument. What next? The world is flat because you think so?

McCheeburger

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> Damn, I used to like him because he liked to yell at Scott McClennan and make him all flustered. Also he's really tall. *sigh*

Liberace

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> I've seen him having dinner with his wife and kids at one of the local neighborhood restaurants. Kids were well behaved (how often does THAT happen with yuppie DC parents? ) and he and the wife were low key.

The Real JR

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> Could someone explain David Gregory's existence on television to me? He looks like a pair of asscheeks suffering from heat rash, all pimpley and red, and that poofy gray hair. Aren't TV newsmen supposed to be ATTRACTIVE? The man's face has pockmarks. I mean, otherwise, that's what radio is for. He seems smart enough, but has always given off a smarmy, sleezy vibe that I don't need in the morning.

(I've clearly had strong feelings about David Gregory for some time. They've been so bottled up, it feels great to release them.)

Excusado

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> "I would watch the less-than-congenial, highly abusive, and generally abrasive Rose...."

You mean it's just been heavily ladled Southern charm all these years?

I guess I'm not excessively surprised, although I am disappointed.*

]]> <![CDATA[David Gregory: You Say 'Jerk']]> The richest joke at all is that this sycophantic puffwillow stood up to President Bush, Ari Fleischer, Scotty Mc LiesAlot and Dana Perino on any but the most trivial points having to do with him being personally affronted. Please. America deserves a lot better from people that are allowed to be in the White House press briefings that the suck job this twinkie regularly gives. He's being rewarded for one afternoon's testiness over Scotty's refusal to address the Plame affair honestly, but the world fails to note that there was no follow up, ever, to his lil' tantrum.
