Jocularity, jocularityAri Fleischer acted personally offended by a question last Tuesday from a Mexican journalist, who suggested the U.S. had offered Mexico City a quid-pro-quo (as in, "We'll ease immigration restrictions if you vote yes on the war"). Ari said, "Think about what you're saying. You're saying nations can be bought. That's absurd," and the whole room of journalists openly laughed in his face. Ari bit his lip, gave a little nod, and walked out. Really. It's all on tape, at the end of a 28-minute segment on C-SPAN. Click the 2/25/03 Ari Fleischer White House Briefing and fast-forward to the end.
