The Press Takes Off Their "Vote Obama" Pins?


Seen the SNL parody of MSM types massaging Obama? The best one of them seems to be offline but there are several. Now finally, since it looks like Obama has got the nomination wrapped up, the press puts away their Obama placards and asks a few tough questions:

The day before primaries in Ohio and Texas that could effectively seal the Democratic presidential nomination for him, a smiling Obama strode out to a news conference at a veterans facility here. But the grin was quickly replaced by the surprised look of a man bitten by his own dog.

Reporters from the Associated Press and Reuters went after him for his false denial that a campaign aide had held a secret meeting with Canadian officials over Obama's trade policy. A trio of Chicago reporters pummeled him with questions about the corruption trial this week of a friend and supporter. The New York Post piled on with a question about him losing the Jewish vote.

"Bitten by his own dog," I think about sums it up.

As an R, I would much rather see us running against Hillary. Obama's support seems to be a cult of personality, and I have now clue how you fight that. We can't send out an army of deprogrammers. And that's what it would take I'm afraid.

The graphic isn't mine, by the way. There are actually people out there giving the man radiant light, like an angel, or the Heart of Jesus. See what I'm talking about?
