White House’s Pfeiffer Does ‘Full Monty’ (Python) on Obama Scandals

White House aide Dan Pfeiffer may have pulled off the “full Ginsburg” on the Sunday shows, but his performance was more like the “full Monty”–Monty Python, that is. 

“Irrelevant” was Pfeiffer’s refrain: “The law is irrelevant” on the IRS scandal, he told ABC’s This Week; it’s “a largely irrelevant fact” where Obama was during the Benghazi attacks, he told Fox News Sunday; it’s also “largely irrelevant” who edited the Benghazi talking points to create a misleading picture of the attacks.

It’s a denial equal to “just a flesh wound” in Monty Python and the Holy Grail–or, better yet perhaps, the infamous “Dead Parrot sketch” in Monty Python’s Flying Circus, in which a pet store owner tries to convince an irate customer to ignore the obvious.
