Washington Journalists Forced To Answer Terrible Wonkette Question, For Comedy
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009
Did you attend the funny comedy event on Friday at the National Press Club, at which many Washington news media elitists performed “stand-up comedy,” for charity? As part of this embarrassing spectacle, the participating DC journalists were forced to answer a question submitted by your Wonkette.

Well. The National Press Club, Washington’s very Esteemed Lunch Club for reporters, has allowed Larry Sinclair to book 2.5 hours worth of prime real estate on 
In the event that Iranian Space Monsters bomb everything in the entire world and Internet tonight except the National Press Club, you may consider attending its lecture tomorrow from this Presidential Candidate of the “Proudican” party, where he will explain his unique “prolutions,” which are either “progressive solutions” or “masturbatory conspiracy salons.” [
Jeremiah Wright’s press conference before the National Press Club this morning got the blogosphere in a bundle today, because someone decided it has to matter. Here’s the current View Of Wright: Obviously he’s very upset that the Main Stream Media has been SMEARING him, who wouldn’t, and he’s defending his statements pretty strongly (”It is not an attack on Jeremiah Wright — it’s an attack on the black church,” he says.) And he reiterated what he told Bill Moyers in their teevee interview about Barack Obama: “He had to distance himself because he’s a politician,” Wright said. He’s blowing open the racial politics that Obama wants to close and claiming that Obama is insincere when he rejects Wright’s “extreme sermons”; he’s trying to balance a deserved self-defense with the collateral damage that that brings on Obama. He has an ego. Most importantly, he’s just some old preacher and not Obama’s surrogate father. He can say whatever he wants and Barry will just have to deal with it. Individual people have a right to defend themselves, and politicians have a right to disown them. That’s all, goodnight. [

*HE ONLY GOT THIS BECAUSE HIS WIFE MESSED AROUND:* In a last-minute change, Chris “Tweety” Matthews has been enlisted to replace patriot Tony Snow as emcee at tonight’s Washington Press Club Foundation Dinner. Is it too late to ask for some Wonkette tickets? Hopefully Matthews’ 
Washington is buzzing with another kind of immigration nut as hundreds of UFO nerds congregate at the National Press Club to demand, uselessly, that the Government ‘fess up about the space monsters, while more than 70 actual astronomers gathered here to support the Arecibo Radio Telescope Observatory in Puerto Rico, which sent the 
Ben Widdicombe reports today that Jeff Gannon, beloved Washington male escort/journalist, is heading up to New York to chat with the Log Cabin Republicans on Thursday. Widdicombe asks Gannon about his, uh, “biases,” and Gannon invokes “the Anderson Cooper rule,” which is fantastic on so, so many levels. 
After we
