Obama Going on Six Months Without a Press Conference
fox ^ | 1/11/2010 | staff

Posted on 01/11/2010 6:42:33 PM PST by Nachum

President Obama is preparing for his State of the Union address, expected sometime in the next month, but some in the White House press corps are getting antsy for him to hold a news conference with reporters, something he hasn't done since July 22, almost six months ago.

He’ll hold a new conference as long as none of those pesky reporters ask him inconvenient questions dammit!

>That is unlikely to stop reporters from applying pressure. Veteran White House correspondents such as Ken Walsh of U.S. News & World Report said the news conference format is important because it gives the public a chance to see the president under pressure and being held accountable.

Head down to the nearest golf course and ask him..

Hyper-arrogant Obama can’t be bothered.

Even though he controls 90% of the media and will only receive puff questions from aforementioned media whores.

Why should he have a press conference when the media loves to have him just come out and blab about some incident without having to take any questions. I think we need to catch him on the basketball court or on the golf course or body surfing anyplace the spends his time cause we know it ain’t in the White House

He's incapable of answering non-prescreened questions. Teleprompter cannot answer for him what he does not know (or Emmanuel, Axelrod, Soros, Pelosi, the SEIU, Soros or his lobbyists and czars have not written for him in prepared speech format).

He has games of golf to play. He cannot be bothered with press conferences.

With slightly less than half the electorate still "supporting" him, he don't need to answer any steenkin questions.

Mind boggling that he still has the support of nearly half the nation, and clear evidence that it's all over but the shouting for our Republic.

When it falls, it will be a blessing.

All hail the New Republic.

The media would not complain.
Here is a snapshot at three months without a conference.
