Hey, pull up a chair.

It's axon tap with David Axelroth, Robert Gibbs, and Mike Murphy.

This is not your father's press for 20 years ago.

No, I'm serious.

You all know what better than I do.

But still, it is absolutely consequential and essential.

After all, I believe in the First Amendment, not just because my good friend Jimmy Madison

wrote it.

All right, there you go.

The president of the United States at the annual White House correspondence dinner where

Washington celebrates itself and the president makes fun of himself.

And he did a pretty good job.

I thought Mike Murphy.

Twenty minutes of dynamite.

I'm going to book him into the Riviera next week.

No, any president who does a little of the work to have a couple of jokes and not be

insane can score there because it's a very cozy inside thing.

I've hated it.

I walked out in the late 90s after too much giggling about Clinton making the stupid joke

post monica.

But it's a layup if you do it, right?

And I thought Biden did pretty well.
