Yesterday's New York Times reported that there would be two parties for the press during the holiday season, with 600 ink-stained wretches showing up at each one. 1,200 Washington journalists, all in one place? Please, Mr. President. For the love of all that is holy. DON'T LET THEM DANCE! -- "Joe Klein"
