Calling all DU journalists!
There are many of you here. In the heat of this PropaGannon thing, one thing seems to be being ignored. Apparently, anyone who can prove that they are a legitimate "journalist" from an established agency (of more than 3 days duration, wink, wink, nudge, nudge) and who can pass Secret Service clearance can receive a daily press pass to the WH briefings and can even go to Presidential press conferences. This little tidbit came straight from Scott McClellen, so I'm sure it's true (snort!).

I think we need to test this one. It's pretty much a win/win. Either we prove that Scottie is a lying thug or we get a few of our esteemed DU journalists in the door.

Now, having said that, I understand if none of you want to take up this challenge as Secret Service vetting is probably a lot less fun than a prostate exam, unless you are a WH planted stooge.
