Obama Ducking National Press, Because, See, They're Too Hard on Him
— Ace

So he's giving interviews to ESPN, Entertainment Weekly, People, and regional media, in which the questions tend to be about sports of local cuisine. So you know, the hard questions.

I think even President Waffles could make it through such interviews. "Yes, I like your local sports clubs and I enjoy your local cuisine."

Just a series of "humanizing" interviews-- nothing about policy.

Now, my headline is not a lie. Obama really does think the national political press is too tough on him, and doesn't give him enough credit.

Remember 2008 and the Honeymoon Swoon of 2009? Yeah, Obama considered that a period of difficulties with a hostile press.

A few months after President ObamaÂ’s $787 billion economic stimulus package passed, he began to notice news reports, but not about the jobs the bill might create or how much of the countryÂ’s infrastructure it would repair. Instead, the articles focused on traffic jams.

“Traffic Set to Slow as Stimulus Gears Up,” as the headline on a 2009 article in USA Today read.

Jared Bernstein, an economist in the administration at the time, said the articles exemplified the White House’s problems with news media coverage. “The feeling was, ‘man, we can’t catch a break,’ ” he said.

Eyebrows raised.

Skipping a little:

The news media have played a crucial role in Mr. ObamaÂ’s career, helping to make him a national star not long after he had been an anonymous state legislator. As president, however, he has come to believe the news media have had a role in frustrating his ambitions to change the terms of the countryÂ’s political discussion. He particularly believes that Democrats do not receive enough credit for their willingness to accept cuts in Medicare and Social Security, while Republicans oppose almost any tax increase to reduce the deficit.

Privately and publicly, Mr. Obama has articulated what he sees as two overarching problems: coverage that focuses on political winners and losers rather than substance; and a “false balance,” in which two opposing sides are given equal weight regardless of the facts.

Yeah, the press completely gives equal weight to both sides and in no way expresses its strong preference for Obama's.

And three days ago he knocked he press corps thus:

Asked about how playing sports was similar to being president, Obama said: "It also turns out that political reporters are a lot like sports reporters. They've all got opinions, even if they didn't play."

Quite a statement who was quite certain that Presidenting was soooo easy that he'd be able to actually reduce the level of the seas before he'd done more than serve as an undistinguished, over-exposed senator for a eighteen months.

Balls, this guy, some assembly required.

On Fox Now: They just played a local reporter's question. It was "If you could have a superpower, what would it be?" Obama said, "Well this is kind of a weird one, but I'd like to be able to speak any language."

There you go.

Oh, then they played this new ad from the RNC:

Bullshit translator:

The fawning media gave this SCOAMF a huge blow job by serving as a campaign wing. He believed his own press, and up until some of them became dissillusioned, it came easy.  They were brokenhearted when they found out that his birth certificate didn't say "born in a manger".

The biggest factor in frustrating his ambitions to change America into a socialist Euro clone: the Tea Party.

I don't think a superpower is anything that could be attained through hard work. Like starting a business, not a superpower.

138 Sorry. Obama did get a mention in the Honolulu Times: Pounahou School was down by 88 points with 30 seconds to go in the game. In a tremendous display of sportsmanship or pity, Barry Sotero was substituted in for Chip Hanohanomauilolo. Sotero was hit in the face with the ball, but campaigned vigorously with the referee that he was fouled. So as not to be forced to listen to Sotero's incoherent ramblings, the ref awarded Sotero two free throws. Sotero's first attempt barely made it half way to the basket and rolled harmlessly under the bleachers. Sotero then ran off the court in a gate that could only be described as 'disturbingly awkward'.

185 They just played a local reporter’s question. It was “If you could have a superpower, what would it be?” Obama said, “Well this is kind of a weird one...” Now I might have said "Cosmic ray eyes that can disintegrate women's panties and see through lottery ticket machines," but I guess Obama is even weirder than I thought.

186 One of the reasons the left screeches about 'SWIFTBOATING!' is because they were one of the factors that helped destroy John Kerry's bid for the presidency. It was effective. People trust and like veterans. Same reason it's so hard to refute charges leveled by them. I did love that summer in 2004, after listening to Kerry's 'Reporting For Duty' horseshit and Max Cleland accuse every Republican of being a chickenhawk coward...then when the Swiftboat Vets started talking, it was suddenly wrong and hateful to bring up one's military record.

Crappy prospect but without a time machine, its the best we can hope for at this point.  I'm hoping Romney is so successful that people will be saying that Reagan was Romneyesque, and Obama's already obvious failure would be immediately compared to Romney's success.  Btw, I think Reagan would be hoping that also.  If Bush had been an unqualified success, Clinton's rep may have never have been rehab'd.
