3. Smirking the entire time, unless he takes questions, at which point he will

5. They're calling it a "news conference" now.
The Q&A ought to be a thing of real beauty.

9. I can already hear him.
along with the usual word mangling and smirking we'll get this. "It's all the Democrats fault." "Congress needs to make the tax cuts permanent now!" "We need to drill in ANWAR now!" "Congress needs to lift the ban on offshore drilling now!"
