Definition of weasel: Scotty McClellan |
|
Main Entry: weasel word Function: noun
Etymology: from the weasel's reputed habit of sucking the contents out of an egg while leaving the shell superficially intact : a word used in order to evade or retreat from a direct or forthright statement or position
Scott do you suck eggs? Sure sounds like it from this press briefing.

1. They all do. He learned the ropes from Ari Fleischer |

Without followup questions the press briefings do more harm than good.

i.e., Scott McClellan, was close to having his head exploding --I'm sure you all noticed how red his face was getting at the very beginning of the 'press conference'--time for him to bow out to join his mentor, Ari---or is his mentor Jeff Gannon?

3. The State Dept. briefing sounds like pre-school book reading |
|
The State Dept press briefing that CSPAN is airing right after the Whitehouse press briefing sounds timid, compared to the Scott McClellan feeding frenzy and bloodbath we just heard.
