NBC News is airing some thing tonight and tomorrow night called “INSIDE THE OBAMA WHITE HOUSE: Brian Williams Reports.” It will be just like Jackie Kennedy showing American television viewers her French drapes and knowledge of French literature, but different! NBC wanted two things for this special: several minutes of Ted Kennedy’s Portuguese dog doing cute dog stuff in the hallways, and a few seconds of Rahm Emanuel being mean but not mean-mean. Here’s the latter! The camera crew just stands awkwardly in Rahm’s office, in silence, until finally he tells them GTFO. [MSNBC]
Ooooooooooooooooooh. What rude vulgarian! Not like the guy has shit to do or anything.
That’s no so bad — he was smiling. Of course, it was his “Ha ha, they haven’t found the dead fish in their equipment bag yet” smile.
Hopefully, a few of his trademark expletive “motherfucker” or “cocksucer” sayings get on national TV, and then he will have to look for another job.
Yep, he’s still hot.
Riveting footage MSNBC, Sweeps Week?
Sine the cameras were pointed at him this is probably the only time in his adult life that Emmanuel has directed someone out of his office without warning them not to let the door hit them on the ass on the way out.
Does anybody recognize the song he turns on before he kicks them out?
Wait, what’s he doing over there? Checking for new faxes? Maybe a note from his administrative assistant? Oh, putting on mood music. That’s exactly what I do! He’s just an ordinary bloke like me, but his shirts are waaaay better! *Sigh*
The camera crew was lucky Rahms kids weren’t there or he would have kneed them all in the nuts before giving them his half-fingered message of the day.
Diogenes McGillicutty: “People Who Died” by Jim Carroll.
As Chairman of the RNC, I just thought of yet another way to expand our big tent. Rahm, you should join our side. After all you have, phonetically speaking, the perfect southern white man Republican name - RAM A MAN Y’ALL.
…tendency to be curt.
So Rahm is basically a 21st century Silent Cal, if Coolidge had been proficient with a switch blade.
Personally I prefer “Inside Annette Haven.”
White men are all so mean. Is he going to do some work or something?
The video cut out before he stabbed the knife into his desk.
How cool is this? He’s reading a newspaper and listening to some music until the fax comes in.Then completely rested he will make some calls and break a few arms without a bunch of assholes pointing their mother fucking cameras at him.
I like him.
He said: “You guys can go now. I’m going to read the Times”
He meant: “You guys can go now. I’m going to eviscerate an intern and read his entrails.”
SEX.
That’s all.
Stop exploiting Rahm Emanuel’s tendency to be cute! Or continue.

Mmmmmmmmm, Rahm.
Hell, he was the model of politeness.
It had to hurt him deep inside.
Ooh, he’s like Gordon Ramsey for policy wonks, except he isn’t, ooh!
Bam! Rahn Emmanuel’s explosive temper exposed. Or maybe his work ethic.
For some reason, when I first read this I saw “Robin Williams”. I might sign up for cable to see that.
Jesus God, look at the size of that fucking phone he’s got on his desk.
Hmm. I think I experienced a moment of clarity of why-the-news-is-such-bullshit.
“It will be just like Jackie Kennedy showing American television viewers her French drapes and knowledge of French literature, but different!”
So it’ll be Michelle showing us her African-American drapes and knowledge of African-American lit? Or Amy (Rules!) Emanuel showing us her converted Jewish drapes and knowledge of Jewish-convert lit?
This is good, but not nearly as good as the NBC video of Michelle talking to Barry in baby voice. With the help of the MSM we’ll soon have enough personal clips of the Obamas to piece together a rough simulation of what goes on inside their bedroom.
If Emanuel starts using Air Force One to go to stamp shows, the Obama presidency is finished.
Larry Fine: damn, cocksuters are the worst, hurts for days. . .
[Hopefully, a few of his trademark expletive “motherfucker” or “cocksucer” sayings get on national TV, and then he will have to look for another job.]
Look for that video of Rahm checking the fax machine to be b-roll in all future NBC packages about Rahm and the White House.
Good thing that crew got out of there fast — you could just tell Rahm was about to go for the shiv.
He looks like a High School Principal.
user-of-owls: Rahm Emanuel listens to Jim Carroll in his office?!? OMG, I may have to re-evaluate my opinion of Rahm Emanuel.
…That’s it? Did Obama put a profanity-triggered shock collar on his or something?
The fact that the treasured photograph prominently displayed on that table is of him kissing Stephen Colbert…
Yes. There are times when I want to grope this Administration.
