We Have a Right to Know
White House News Conference, 11:00AM Eastern Standard Time
REPORTER: The American People have a right to know how many Bush Adminstration officials it takes to screw in a light bulb.
SCOTT MCCLELLAN: There is nothing wrong with the light bulb; its conditions are improving daily.
R: You're not answering the question.
SM: Any reports of its lack of incandescence are spin - pure politics. Illuminating rooms is hard work. That light bulb has served honorably, and anything you say undermines the lighting effort.
R: It's my duty as a reporter to ask these hard hitting questions.
SM: Why do you hate freedom?
