I watched that segment. Milbank is so thin-skinned, you can see him getting riled, and he makes these condescending little laughs when Nico calls him out.

I loved Nico saying “You’re quick to malign and late to correct.”

One of the few unfortunate choices Keith O. makes is letting Dana Milbank come on ‘Countdown’ and speak, at which occasions Ms. Dana comes off like Ed Helms in the first half of ‘The Hangover’.

Someone on the main site, where the grownups are, pointed out that not much of a fuss was made when JeffJames GannonGuckert, the male prosty, was not only a “reporter,” but that he seemed to have free run of the WH at all hours of the day and night… But let a DFH BLOGGER ask a question… Quelle horreur!!!!

According to Wiki, little Dana is now persona non grata with KO until he says he’s sorry he’s a dick. My guess? Never happen, and we’ll never have to be exposed to him on KO again.

Milbank has not been on Countdown in over a year

Amanda Carpenter cried, “It’s not fair!” And she’s right. Nico Pitney is smart and does his homework, and that’s not playing fair!

Even when he’s being a dick, dana somehow manages to make it all about him — which in a warped sort of way isn’t bad going for a thin-skinned, irrelevant, vapid little dick. I wish him all the worst when the WaPo goes the way of the NY Sun.

Howie went to “the girl” when he saw that Dana was getting all steamed up and was ready to lose his shit.

What a prig.

Leave Dana aloooonnnee!!! It’s tough getting pwned.

Gee, on Howie’s show, too. The same show where Dana and Howie giggled and preened about how Dana, who was covering the presidential campaign for the Washington Post in ‘00, shot down Al Gore because Al Gore thought he was all that and shit and it just really annoyed Dana Milbank.

So you were tough on Bush, were you, Little Lord Dana? Well, sucks when you refer somebody for the job and things go bad.

Milbank will get a corner office for this. WaPo has become the place for pompous, thin-skinned Village types to practice fact-free journalism.

Oh my. Bloggers and commenters are making fun of Dana all over the intertoobs. This has got to be making Dana crazy, cause what’s the worse thing you can do to a thin-skinned dick — ridicule them!

What a pity (tee-hee).

what’s with milbank and his stack of papers? sounds like he knew what he was going to get called out about, not unlike his accusation that pitney got puffed by the WH. he srsly asked a presidential candidate how he looked in a bathing suit and then thinks he can whine about a legitimate question being asked, no matter how the reporter was treated?

imagine if the villagers had to work for a living . . .

Damn, this Nico Suave dude just moved on up the respect-o-meter big time. Was true in elementary school, and true as an adult…when you stand up to a bully they cave. They got nuthin.

Nico came out swinging hard and the Villagers had no idea what to do when off script. Pitney even gets a Jeff Gannon/Guckert jab in there, and notice of course that the Villagers breeze right by that one just as they’ve done since that happened, which is/was a scandal for the history books. Move along, nothing to see here…”so back to that question you asked about Iran that was submitted by an Iranian in Iran…how could you do such a stupid thing, Nico?!?!”

I loved Nico’s response to that even, which the Villagers also ignored, where he says that would be an odd collusion since Obama evaded the question in his answer. Bravo, Nico!

I’d love to see Nico on a panel with George Will. Will’s skin is so thin I’m surprised he doesn’t spontaneously spring leaks. And Georgie reacts like a little pouty kid. Nico would get Will steaming so bad that you’d see the smoke rising from under Will’s head carpet. Would be hilarious!

Cliff Schechter and Will would work too…

To paraphrase Peter Venkman, yes, it’s true . . . the man is a dick.

Both were dickish. While Nico asked a legit question, his little attitude was that of a prick, even if Dana was a prick first.

Who frigging cares. I know, I know, this is about the demise of real reporting, etc. Right. So, we see served up as if this little dick fight was news.

The Venkman quote should be, “This man has no dick.”

Sorry, just had to say that.

And there I was thinking that Milbank was going for the British-style sketch reporter thing these days, not attempting serious journamalism. Can’t have it both ways, Dana.

Well, in defense of Milbank — he’s pretty much an equal-opportunity offender.

a dick and a bitch .. looks they should be able to work something out ..eh ??

Dana Milbank is a member of Skull and Bones, and is therefore better than all you proles. He earned the right to his views, and his privileges, and his facts, through years spent pulling long all-nighters at the Daily News. Never forget.

Hey, remember when he wore a hunting jacket after Dick Cheney shot a man in the face? Dana Milbank is funny too!

Later fer that Skull n’ Bones shit. Dana went to the same high school as Lindsay Lohan, same school district as Amy Fisher, so he does know from face shooting. Also same school district as the Mepham Broomstick Anal Rape freaks, so he knows from that, too.

Bet his wife says he gives lousy skull. Check it with Chunky Reese Witherspoon, ya don’t believe it.

Nico owned Dana in this video. Yeah, Nico was a bit of a jerk, but you HAVE to be to get nitwits like DANA to STFU. As for Amanda Carpenter, “Wah, wah, it’s soooooo not fair! Like, we are ALLLLLLL supposed to have fair access to the president–except for those stoopid bloggers.” God, she bugs the shit out of me. This is very sexist of me, but I hate it more when women show their asses than when men do the same.

She had no business being on. The Washington Times is not a legitimate news organization, certainly less so than the Huffington Post.

WTF is she, anyway?

“You have got to understand, ma’am…

I watch mainly the biblical channels.”

Dennis (#12)…thanks, your one line below says it all.

Used to go to WaPo for Froomkin, and then spend some time mocking aholes like Milbank, Cohen, Hiatt, Wills and others there, but no more…WaPo is erased from my bookmark bar…
