pale slider why dont you prove what you said about me....
seems you dont answer tough questions either...
or do i need large colored font?
How many times is this for you... three? To what, the ONCE you claim I came down on you first? How long do you hope to get away with this? Weren't you warned to drop it? I was, and did.
So you need to just shut up and go away if all you're going to do is start fights.... AGAIN.

I realize the so-called mainstream media has gone off the deep end, but the extent to which they are in the pocket of Barack Obama is stunning. During Obama's prime time press conference in which he (and the media) celebrated his first 100 days in office, the questions ranged from ineffective to plain ridiculous.
Aren't the media supposed to ask challenging questions? What happened to the media that hounded President Bush? During Obama's press conference, as unemployment continues to rise, Obama stated that he has "already saved or created 150,000 jobs." Are you kidding me? The statement itself is outrageous, and not one "journalist" called him on it.
First, here's a portion of Obama's press conference and some Fox News analysis:

Is this reporter for real? What has "enchanted" you the most? We have a struggling economy and no questions about the economy? Not only does the Washington press corps not ask original questions that challenge Obama, they also don't ask the follow-ups when Obama makes comments that are just plain crazy. The entire mindset is "if Obama says it, it must be true."
Example:
As noted in the AP news story Obama adviser sees increase in unemployment, "unemployment will increase in the next several months." People are getting laid off. They are looking for work and can't find it. This is what happens during a recession.
However, at the press conference, Obama said that the stimulus bill "has already saved or created over 150,000 jobs." I don't even know where to begin! First of all, if any Republican president were to use an idiotic statement such as "saved or created" in reference to jobs, the press corps would be like sharks with blood in the water. Saved or created? In addition, no one questioned Obama on the figure of 150,000. Not one question... not at the press conference... not during the rest of the week. Nothing.

I bet a few of them had to change their shorts after that question.
Where did all the blood thirsty, frothing at the mouth, barracuda reporters go? Why isn't oblahma getting the kinds of questions Bush did? Why are the liberals so afraid to ask oblahma a HARD QUESTION? Afraid their messiah, greatest orator in history might STUTTER and sound like an IDIOT?
<SNIP>What has enchanted you the most, Mr. President? <SNIP>
Here's the transcription of the question:
OBAMA: Jeff Zeleny.
QUESTION: Thank you, Mr. President.
During these first 100 days, what has surprised you the most about this office? Enchanted you the most from serving in this office? Humbled you the most? And troubled you the most?
OBAMA: Now let me write this down.
(LAUGHTER)
OBAMA: I've got...
QUESTIONER: Surprised, troubled.....[Here Seleny got too far ahead of the Pres.]
OBAMA: I've got -- what was the first one?
QUESTIONER: Surprised.
OBAMA: Surprised.
QUESTIONER: Troubled.
OBAMA: Troubled.
QUESTIONER: Enchanted.
OBAMA: Enchanted, nice.
(LAUGHTER)
QUESTIONER: And humbled.
OBAMA: And what was the last one, humbled?
QUESTIONER: Humbled. Thank you, sir.
OBAMA: All right. OK. Surprised. I am surprised......
Well now, Obama show's us how it's done....by his own admission BRAINTRUST-OBAMA makes it pretty clear that HE CANNOT fully listen to and remember 4 words, and provide a cogent response without prompting.
I recall President Bush taking questions with as many as 3-to-4-sub-sets of questions without taking any notes, and then re-arranging them in their proper levels of hierarchy and cogently responding to them all. Don't you think old Braintrust could manage what that monkey Boosh could manage?
I have a question for the President: Mr. President, if you were a tree, what kind of a tree would you be; and you don't get to be an enchanted tree?

Those that strongly approve and strongly disapprove are now at +3 with Rasmussen:
Rasmussen Reports: The Most Comprehensive Public Opinion Data Anywhere
Number of self-id Republicans down slightly. Dems hold steady. Problem with this is the 'strongly approve' are more likely than not to be Dems, while the rising 'strongly disapprove' are likely to be 'Rep', but now that number includes a significant number of independents.

If the neo-cons are pissed off he's doing a damn fine job in my book. You all need to get your heads out of your ass and realize that as a nation we voted to move forward towards a stronger social safety net and away from trickle down voodoo economic bullshit that lets the rich keep exploiting the poor.

Oh Good Jesus, when? How about finding a few transcripts? If I did it myself, I'd be accused of having BDS.

The mere fact that you have no recollection of such an instance tells everyone here who do actually watch presidential press conferences that you do not. I for one never miss a presidential press conference regardless of which party the president is from. Can you say the same?

And you remember Bush "cogently" responding to all the questions? Surrrrrrrrrre you do... Actually, you're probably right: It gets easier every time your most forceful response is "STAY THE COURSE."
