Obama 'The View' Interview: President Talks Sherrod Firing, Afghanistan, Lindsay Lohan (VIDEO)

Friday, July 30, 2010


Such as what?



Of the 3 press conferences that Obama has held since he got into office, he's taken approximately 5-6 questions per, on subjects ranging from health care to Afghanistan.



How does, "Were you invited to Chelsea Clinton's wedding?" and "Should Snooki run as mayor of Wasilla?" and "What do you want your legacy to be?" and, "In the last month, what has been the rose and what has been the thorn?" (this is the 2010 version of the much-mocked stock question that Barbara Walters used to ask, "If you were a tree, what kind would you be?"), compare to, "We're learning today that the oil has been gushing as much as five times the initial estimates. What does that tell you and the American people the -- about the extent to which BP can be trusted on any of the information that it's providing, whether the events leading up to this spill, any of their information?"?



Real journalists would have challenged Obama's recitation of his 'accomplishments' with the facts that these weren't accomplishments for the People, so much as they were for the corporations.
