Contest: Rename the White House Communications Agency

Even though it is called the White House Communications Agency and people who work there provide secure communications to the president at home and on the road, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney went to great lengths this week to explain WHCA personnel -- one of whom has been implicated in the Colombia prostitution scandal -- really are not part of the White House.

Carney told a press briefing Monday that WHCA personnel "are not members of the White House staff. They are not chosen by the White House senior staff. They are no more members of the White House staff than Secret Service personnel who you see every day on the grounds here are members of the White House staff."

To eliminate any confusion about WHCA -- and it sure is confusing when the White House press secretary publicly disavows WHCA -- I think it's time for a name change.
