The White House is barring counselor Kellyanne Conway from television appearances after the high-profile aide made multiple on-air statements contradicting the Trump administration’s official stance, CNN reported Wednesday.

Conway, who was recently a regular fixture on TV news, hasn’t appeared for an on-air interview since early last week. That Monday, she argued that then-national security adviser Michael Flynn had the “full confidence” of President Trump.

Not that I've been exactly "missing" her, but this does help explain why she hasn't been seen. I hope Trump and Bannon don't have any bunnies they are particularly fond of....

Well it's about time. Maybe Trump is starting to wise up, given this and the appointment of Gen. McMaster. Now if he dumps Bannon and Sessions and Spicer and stops using Twitter he might start getting somewhere. I know, it's just a dream, but anything is possible.

The word came out last week on Morning Joe. She lied so often that they refused to book her on air. They felt she was no longer in the room during discussions. She continued to call and request air time.


Other outlets followed, so WH is finally catching up.

Conway is no longer a credible source of information. The game now is to catch her in a lie.

With everything swirling around, ain't nobody got time for that.

That was my understanding also, that Ms. Conway was given rather free access to the various stations, at her request, until her 'alternative facts' became untenable.


Of course, I feel sympathy for her, on one level. She would explain the White House's position on some subject, only to be directly contradicted by the President or Spicer or whomever just hours later. So, even when she thought she was accurately explaining the White House position, the rug would be pulled out from under her.


I will say this: if ever I am caught in a compromising position, with bloody bodies laying all about me, axe in hand, my first call will be to her to explain away the circumstance.


Kellyanne: "Mr. Legalsea is the victim in this. He was simply trying to kill a pesky fly, when these fourteen people insisted on stepping in front of his axe, some multiple times. It is all due to the extreme policies put forth by PETA."


Then, I will run for office.

Another wheel falling off.

Stand by for her to step forward to tell Americans the truth about what happens behind those closed doors in WH.

Or, God forbid, the folks in the administration start telling the truth, and then they don't have to worry about keeping their stories straight. Oh wait, what the hell am I thinking.

Who would have thought that anyone would have become too disingenuous to keep a place on Trump's staff? Maybe his policy is, "I'm the chief liar around here! You are only allowed to repeat my falsehoods! No one challenges my position as No. 1 on anything!"
