"Here's NBC's Andrea Mitchell in a bear costume. . .'Kiss the Dow goodbye and let the markets tumble'. . .ho ho, ha ha! Garcon, more champagne. . .now a quick peek backstage, where the Gridiron Club's members are donning costumes, downing drinks and simmering over the President's absense. They're 'very upset' and 'dissed'. . .Obama cited family commitments, but it's entirely possible that he didn't want to be seen in white tie and tails at a $300-a-plate dinner of lobster panna cotta, yukking it up with Beltway insiders, while the economy bottoms out."
Bullseye. The elitist Villagers are so clueless about how they're perceived and so wrapped up in their own self-importance. We'd like to see the President skip the other "dinners" (WH correspondent's dinner, Alfalfa club, etc.) coming up with the Villager mob. Let them eat cake.
