[edit] Plot

It is two days before Christmas and who should appear but reporter Danny Concannon! He's dressed as St. Nick, but isn't spreading good cheer. Also showing up at the White House is Toby's father (Toby isn't exactly pleased to see him); Bartlet's daughter Zoey, who's accompanied by her French boyfriend (Charlie isn't pleased to see him); and psychiatrist Stanley Keyworth, to whom Bartlet complains about concentration lapses. Meanwhile, the president decides to rip up the HHS budget just before it is due at the printer's. That'll mean a lot of work over the holidays. Also, both the President and Leo contemplate telling somebody else about the Shareef action.
