Should illegal bride taking of an official be kept secret in order to get future stories?

I dunno. I guess it would depend on why the bride is illegal. Is she a wetback looking for a greencard, is she underage, polygamy, or what ever?

I’m just upset the Washington Press Corp isn’t doing its job–the lack of follow up/challenging questions. I think a few of those name reporters should get kicked out of the daily briefing room or not called upon for being too aggressive until there is no one left in the room. Let the President/Congressman/Governor shill for themselves without getting the stamp of approval from a fawning press.

He's always been this way. It's the press that has been more adversarial, so he's acting up more, and they are reporting it more. For example, when he was president, he blew up at a reporter who asked him when he would hold a press conference. The media at the time didn't report it much. #17, he’s not deteriorating.
