WH Correspondents Dinner

[DFW HOYA]

Must have been a slow news night on CNN Saturday (which strangely, CNN had little or no coverage on the Times Square story that evening), instead covering the correspondents dinner.

The President had his best line of the night: "It's been quite a year since I've spoken here last. Lots of ups, lots of downs, except for my approval ratings, which have just gone down. But that's politics, it doesn't bother me. Besides, I happen to know that my approval ratings are still very high in the country of my birth."

Runner-up: "There a few things in life harder to find and more important to keep than love. Well, love and a birth certificate."

Also, Jay Leno stunk up the place. (Next year, Conan.)

Good to see the Prez yuck it up. Really nothing big going on for him to concern himself with. P.S. I would be very nervous if I were he right now. The last two big names in the crosshairs of the National Enquirer have not fared well.

John Edwards says "shut up".

Who's the other one? Was it Spitzer? I don't think the Enquirer had anything to do with the Ensign or Sanford escapades.

Tiger Woods, I think. I believe they had his infidelities before his car crash but their publisher killed the story in exchange for an interview w/ another magazine.
