Who? – Obama
Yesterday “The One” held a press conference. In the front row, left-wing liberal radio host Ed Schulz. Also in the audience, a liberal blogger from the Huffington Post who Obama called on for a question. Also in the front row, senile witch and leftard columnist Helen Thomas. Columnists have never been given a front row seat at White House press conferences.
In the past, the Obamassiah has referred to Shultz as “the voice of progressive radio”. He’s rumored to start his mornings with a Latte’ reading the Huffington Post. Sam Stein of the Huffington Post asked Obama if he would pursue “prosecution of Bush administration officials.” How atypical and frankly, a stoopid question.
Can you imagine the outrage in the mainstream media if President Bush had allowed right-wing bloggers a front and center seat? Imagine the outrage if Rush or Hannity were also in the front row during a Bush press conference.
Is this what Obama meant when he stated so many times he would be running a bi-partisan administration? Does he really think he can put a chokehold on reporters that don’t see it “his” way. Is this change you can believe in?
Apparently Wall Street doesn’t believe..

Ummm, I think you should get your facts straight.
Helen Thomas has had a seat in the front row FOREVER (well, with the exception of the eight years that W banished her to the back for having the temerity to actually ask biting questions and answer honestly when asked what she thought of the man).
And, in fairness, Obama completely dodged the most important part of her question, that being “who in the Middle East already has nuclear capability”…. why Obama didn’t admit what everyone with an IQ over 12 already knows — Israel has it — is a mystery. He just completely dodged that.
Derek,
Ahem..
Helen Thomas only had a seat in the front row when she was a news correspondent. Thomas went from being a correspondent to a columnist during President Bush’s administration and was moved from her seat in the front row at that time. It had nothing to do with questions she asked
Columnist have traditionally not been allowed in the front row.
