My New Favourite YouTube Channel

I am loving watching the daily White House press briefings coming out on YouTube. I'm not going to go on at length about them, because politics might bore you, and this isn't a political blog. Nevertheless, it's such a great little peek into the world of political reporting. You can watch them bantering, bickering, laughing... it's just fun. And I think the same thing I used to think watching Tony Snow, which is that being the U.S. press secretary is a staggeringly difficult job for the amount of poise, good humour, eloquence and thickness of skin it requires. By the way, haters, I liked Tony Snow a lot. He seemed like a cool guy. I also like the new guy, Robert L. Gibbs. Check him out weaving and bobbing here:
