protein wisdom’s Democratic National Convention coverage, 6

Had a great time at breakfast this morning with Fox News’ Brit Hume.  After polishing off maybe 12 Bloody Marys between us, Brit and I began pelting George Stephanopoulos in the back of his head with sausage scraps and balled up toast bits. Stephanopoulos—sitting a few booths in front of us, eating a grapefruit half—finally just got up and left.  Without ever looking back at us.  And with his hair absolutely littered with saliva-moistened bread balls and pork gristle.  Definitely a convention highlight.

…I mean, a grapefruit half for breakfast.  What kind of man eats like that?

    That’s not fair, picking on that little boy.

    Perhaps George Stephanopoulos will eat right when he grows up.

    I’m ashamed of you, Jeff.  You use this blog as a forum to share your values and the way you live your life and then you do this?

    I mean, eating toast?  On the Atkins diet?  Shame!  God forbid there was jelly

    p.s.  I hope George gets lots of compliments on his “festering fennel” after-shave.

    Brit was the toast master.  Me, I just flung sausage bits.

  4. Scott P says:

    Ah, true Protein Wisdom at its’ finest.  Keep up the noble work, you’re making us proud!

    Did the waiter have to help George out of his booster seat so he could leave?

    I must say Jeff, yours is the most comprehensive and policy-oriented blogging of the convention I’ve seen so far. I’m deeply impressed by your even-handed and fair coverage of George Stephanopoulos’ hair – most “Old Media” reporters would have just described the sausage and toast bits as debris, without any of the critical background information you provided. Or worse yet, they would have buried the story completely.

    Kudos to you, my friend, for this fearless and in-depth investigative report.

    Why, a Girlie-Man!

    Jeff, this is a total set-up. of course you know full well that Steph would ignore you, just as you know why he eats grapefruit for breakfast: after years (not merely the deplorable hours, or days any regular person would loathe even contemplating) of putting up with clintonian frat behavior and the daily bile mop-up of bad press, it is clear that he is not normal. and this is my favorite GS anecdote by far.

    I wish I had your ideas when I was a younger man.
