For folks who haven't seen the video of Stephen Colbert's recent address to the President and the White House Correspondents (there's a link to the video at [livejournal.com profile] qlewkr's LJ, among others), here's a quote that captures events perfectly:

"Here's how it works. The president makes decisions; he's the decider. The press secretary announces those decisions, and you people of the press type those decisions down. Make, announce, type. Put them through a spell check and go home. Get to know your family again. Make love to your wife. Write that novel you got kicking around in your head. You know, the one about the intrepid Washington reporter with the courage to stand up to the administration. You know, fiction."
