Obama and the Corps [Fritzworth]
— Open Blogger

The White House press corps, that is. Keith Koffler, who used to be part of the White House press corps while working at Roll Call, calls out the Obama Administration for its systematic and heavy-handed tactic of bullying and intimidating journalists who dare to write critically of The One:

The White House bullies reporters to try to ensure favorable coverage. When White House officials, particularly members of the press office, see a story they donÂ’t like, they often call and verbally abuse the reporter who wrote the piece.
In diatribes often peppered with obscenities, they complain of profound injustice, bias, lack of relevance Â– anything they can think of to get reporters to back off their story.
ItÂ’s not just a series of uncontrolled outbursts. It is a planned, methodical, and highly artificial effort to either squash a story or get inside a reporterÂ’s head so they think twice about doing a piece next time that negatively impacts Obama.
That this is an actual policy is evident from the consistency of the practice and its implementation by nearly every member of the White House press office staff. They are all nice, affable people who suddenly switch into an unmarked gear and begin running you over at full speed.

Hey, it's the Chicago way. Read the whole thing, particularly where Kofford contrasts it with the Bush and Clinton administrations. ..fritz..

1 The "If Bush Had Done This..." file is so thick that you need a crane to lift it. And still the journolistas cover for him. It's like an abusive relationship: "Well, he's just tense all the time, and I'm so clumsy that I slip a lot."

If Obama were a Republican, reports would not only continue but also scream about "Nixonian" press policies at the White House.

16 I'm sure these enterprising journalists would produce a recording asap if it had been the representative of a Republican administration on the other end of the line. And, no, I don't believe that these press office flunkies are generally "nice, affable people". They are assholes acting like the asshole they work for. That said, I've been searching high and low, but can't seem to find any sympathy for the poor, beleagered journalists who have covered and continue to cover for the White House. Abusive relationship indeed. Unfortunately, we're the ones getting batted around, as well.

22 Remember there is no means not justified by the end of social justice. It isn't 'What they are willing to do' it's 'What they think they can get away with'.
So if you keep that in mind, you don't get surprised over this stuff. You just wonder what other deplorable things they are doing that you don't know about; and what they might do in the future if they think they can swing it.

Always remember: to them, any measure is justified.

57 Even Bill Maher takes the threat posed by political Islam more seriously than the fucktard in office.

Bill Maher is a certified theophobic. His theophobia is the basis of his liberalism. Since he fears the formation of any government based on religious moral principals, he understands that Islam will do anything to install theocracies in all nations. Since that is the pillar that all of his social beliefs rest on, no amount of double think, no matter how much he tries, can erase the threat he feels toward Islamic fascism. The true believers in social justice believe in it as a faith, and will defend it for it's own sake, or ally any party to advance it. Maher believes in social justice do to an absence of other moral beliefs predicated by his rejection of a higher power. The true believers in social justice, those that have the faith, will denounce Maher when his views on the subject become inconvenient to forwarding their social objectives.

76 Bill Maher is a certified theophobic. His theophobia is the basis of his liberalism.

You're absolutely right. Maher crossed the line from libertarian to libertine and endeared himself to the coastal elites. He's quick with the one liners, and every Alinskyite knows what that is worth. "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage." But he also understands that while devout Christians disapprove of his homosexuality, they don't want to hang him. He also knows that there is an Islamic movement that wants a theocracy. None of this portends well for gays, who see the left cozying up to jihadis.

@92 Switch. I'm 75 and I haven't heard that since I was a teenager. It is a good analogy for the MSM after a counseling call from the WH staff goons. Just think, they graduated form journalism schools, they were taught to question authority ( a 60s thing ) their teachers preached, and now they have to SWITCH and eat their stories, perfect. How low does their self esteem have to be to continue the charade and shill for the community organizer.

101

And just where the hell is D. Issa?

This concerns me too. I've seen speculation that he cut some kind of deal with the WH and a few minions will get thrown under the bus, he'll investigate some medium level corruption but stay away from anything that seriously threatens Zero. Really hope that isn't so.

102 "They are all nice, affable people who suddenly switch into an unmarked gear and begin running you over at full speed." Well, I think I found your problem here. You've got them in the wrong category. That'll be $300. Damn, should have been a life coach.

103 I can say for the empty suit in the WH who apparently is a clueless schmuck when it comes to a sport he should know. Fashionmonkey.org Coach Outlet Store Online

104 This is the typical behavior of a narcissist. Obama needs constant positive reinforcement to feed his ego. It even goes down to his political decisions and that horrible "do it for my daughters" Olympics bis speech.

Even when it was supposed to be about selling Chicago to the IOC, He made it all about him. People did not see it during the campaign, that time it was SUPPOSED to be about him. Now it is about the COUNTRY.
