I'd get rid of Spicer, and get a good looking female in to replace him. ;D
The best Press Secretary I witnessed since I've been watching this stuff was Tony Snow (RIP). He was smart, knew the issues, was disarming, and had a sense of humor.

So technically he is correct, Hitler didn't use them in battle. But the subject of the Holocaust and the use of gas to kill millions of innocent civilians is way too sensitive, and the technical correctness of his statement will be ignored by the emotional masses; something anyone should have foreseen before saying such a thing.
The truth here is that it isn't the type of method used to kill that should be the point. The focus of our outrage should be the fact that non-combatant civilians including women and children are killed. If every single person in Hitlers death camps had been shot with bullets instead of gassed, the atrocity would have been no less. But then no one would have blinked at Spicer's comment. One more case of the media and the masses just misdirecting themselves to the wrong detail.

If Trump really wanted to make his point with the media, he'd go Caligula on them and appoint a horse as his press representative.

That is hilarious. I wonder how many people who don't play WoW get the Leroy Jenkins reference? Has it crossed into a mainstream meme?

I don't know what WoW is, nor have I ever heard of Leroy Jenkins. Wasn't he in the movie "I'm gonna git you sucka!?" :)

Not sure if it's mainstream, but it's at least outside of WoW circles a bit.

When you play World of Warcraft you further understand what happened here. You group with others (anywhere from 5 to 40 individual live players, online at various locations around the world) for the purpose to engage and defeat a lot of AI bad guys in some evil stronghold. You meet, safe at the entrance, to organize yourselves and sometimes discuss strategy. The AI bad guys are programmed so that when your character comes within a certain distance, they "notice" you, develop "hate" for you and then "aggro" to you. This "aggro" draws them to you like you were a magnet. These particular bad guys are usually "elite" which means that you alone cannot defeat even one of them by yourself, but must fight them together with the whole group. By running into the battle area pell-pell all by himself, he brought the attention of all those elites down upon the whole group, which was subsequently overwhelmed and had no chance.
Ah, now it makes sense.

Yeah, Laura has her moments, but she's kind of a horse face. (Sexist, misogynistic, objectifying, un-empowering comment I might add). Dana Loesch is a pretty good one! :)

Never heard of her, but I'm definitely partial to brunettes.
I know LI could kick the presses ass, and she's prettier than Spicer, in any case.

She does some promo pieces and work for the NRA. That is the only reason I know of her.

Although it would never happen, I'd love to see Milo Y as press secretary. It would be entertaining for sure.

Liberals get a pass, it's only faux outrage if a conservative says it.
