“Bear with me for a moment as I spare my friends in the press office countless inquiries,” he said into the camera. “I have no choice (but) to go all Peabody and Sherman on you for the next couple of nights since I woke up this morning with my left eye swollen shut and just about as red as the old Soviet flag,” he added. “According to the NBC doctors here, it’s some kind of minor infection which should resolve itself by the weekend.
