Sure, let's dine with the Prez and not tell anybody

how positively gagging...
President Bush played host to the White House press corps Thursday night for a private off-the-record dinner at his ranch.

The casual affair of fried catfish, potato salad, coleslaw, homemade cheese and chocolate-chip cookies followed a tradition in which Bush and his wife, Laura, have the press covering his annual August vacation out to the their ranch in central Texas as a sort of thank-you.

The event was not held last year because of the busy campaign season. The invitations to the reporters were issued on the condition that they not discuss conversations at the event.

meanwhile, across the road at camp casey... if the wh press corps had any cojones whatsoever, they would have declined the invite en masse...

(thanks to raw story...)
