Dana Perino Lampoons Press Corps In Final Briefing (VIDEO)

Dana Perino celebrated the end of her tenure by treating the assembled White House Press Corps to her comedic stylings, as presented in the form of a video presentation that will totally go VIRAL. Actually, it's kind of adorable in the way it makes Your Press Corps look sort of foolish. They fit into tiny spaces, and wear silly things on their heads, and sleep on the job. And there's a great shot of the hulking David Gregory having a grand mal seizure as President Bush looks on. Perino very generously includes a brief, but affecting, tribute to Tony Snow. Then the video ends, and, presumably, Les Kinsolving starts yelling at her about something, because he is Captain Buzzkill.

I will buy a vowel Dana.... oh, sorry, wrong airhead!

I think I made something similar back in high school, and probably had the same leaden delivery. Poor woman was in over her head. Cuban Missile Crisis, anyone?

Lame, lame, LAME!

That was as funny as a Barney Christmas video and Dana has the comedy stylings and timing of someone on open mic night in an english as a second language class.

She's awesome. What a trial it must have been to try to remain cordial to the buffoons of the press corp she dealt with daily.

Most of these giants of journalism are probably still running the discredited "Palin doesn't Africa's a continent" story. Gotta placate the great unwashed, I suppose; the illiterati who still read the NYT or WashPo.

Good Bye Meet The Press And Tim We Love You !!!!

Hey Dana...

Hows that black eye, you spoiled delusional witch?

I feel extremely saddened for the citizens of the U.S. as the Media increases their democratic deficit.
Since she mentioned Helen Thomas, I will quote her:
Question- what did you think of the White House press corps that covered—all of the press covering President Bush?

HELEN THOMAS: I think they lost their guts after 9/11. No one wanted to ask penetrating questions for fear of being called un-American, unpatriotic. And I think their publishers, wherever they are, maybe Wall Street and so forth, were saying, “Lay off. You know, we’re all Americans, and we have to stick together no matter what.” So I don’t think reporters should—I mean, obviously, the ideal is to seek the truth, no matter where the chips fall.``

The only reporter I`ve seen with any GUTS.

can't make up for the Bush admin. lying, bad ethics, distortions, rudeness. someone told me they heard from a friend that they read on politico that perino was taking a job as a speaker for a toilet maker. true?

[goddessNdiva]

This wont go viral. They never did their job.

[gruyere6]

maybe they will go e-bola.

Case of the Joker having no clue that she is the true JOKE.

[JerryTheAngel]

That's a hilarious picture of Gregory! LOL

I've tried watching Gregory on Meet The Press and will have to skip watching that show on Sunday mornings and I have watched that show for years religiously. He's unwatchable. Terrible choice.

OMG. Republicans are just not funny by any strech of the imagination. Sorry Dana, you were so boring and insincere I found you to be NOT CUTE. Pretty in a painful way as you tried to get by on your looks only yet again. She will end up on fox as a commentator for all her faithful lying in the name of the gop.

Hey, Linkins...

As someone who has epilepsy, I find nothing funnier that seizure jokes. Wait, my mistake, I find them horribly offensive. Guess my spastic brain gets confused sometimes.
