President Bush Takes Some Jabs at Stephanopoulos & Clinton

When George Stephanopoulos arrived at the White House last Tuesday for a pre-State of the Union lunch hosted by President Bush for the network anchors and hosts of the Sunday interview shows, Bush took advantage of the opportunity to take some light-hearted jabs at Stephanopoulos and his pre-ABC News employer, President Bill Clinton.

In his Thursday, January 30 “The Reliable Source” column, Lloyd Grove recounted how on Wednesday Tom Brokaw had “regaled the overflow crowd for restaurateur Carol Joynt's community lunch with the story of the previous day's White House lunch at which President Bush apparently couldn't stop teasing ABC This Week host George Stephanopoulos.”

Grove reported that Bush quipped to Stephanopoulos: "Welcome back to the White House, George. We'll have to make sure that we count the silverware."

Brokaw, Grove relayed, “recounted an even sharper jape. Discussing his upcoming State of the Union address, Bush told the assembled media heavies: 'I'm prepared. I'm not the kind of guy who's going to sit in the back of the limo on the way to the Capitol and rewrite my speech. Know what I mean, George?'"
