After last year's Stephen Colbert incident, the White House Correspondents Association annual dinner tonight will feature entertainment from none other than Rich Little.
For a White House that once spoofed the President sending Barney (the family dog) out looking for Hussein's WMDs, this is a remarkably thin-skinned reaction on their part. What's the worst thing a comedian could say about him this year? Oh, nevermind.
Yes, yes, I am aware that he WHCA actually does the inviting, but surely it's not done without consultation.
I also heard that Don Ho's passing last week detracted from the rest of the contemporary entertainment they wanted to provide. It's important, you know, to retain the hipness that comes along with this dinner.
