Brit Hume to Juan Williams just now on Fox News Sunday. Williams had just put strong anti-Bush spin on the Fitzgerald investigation. Whenever the two of them do a panel together, Hume gets pissed at Williams. And then William Kristol is usually there -- he was today -- and he never seems to get upset. He's always got that big beaming smile on his face, no matter what's happening. And then there's Mara Liasson, a stolid, solid presence. And good old Chris Wallace ("I've totally lost control of you guys today").
(I know Hume didn't mean it that way, but to say "hose you down" to a black man calls to mind images of police with firehoses. It's not a good metaphor.)
