Mediaite ^ | 8/4/11 | Matt Schneider

With stocks plunging on Wall Street, tensions were rising in today’s White House press briefing as ABC’s Jake Tapper relentlessly demanded Press Secretary Jay Carney explain exactly what it is that President Obama is doing to help create new jobs. When Carney suggested Obama is urging Congress to pass legislation, Tapper got agitated and responded, “so the same stuff he was doing a couple months ago, calling on Congress to pass things?”Critics of Obama will no doubt applaud Tapper’s efforts here, yet even supporters of the President can’t fault Tapper for forcefully demanding answers.

The best way Obama can help to create jobs in America is lose HIS job.

I don’t know Tapper’s politics, but it almost sounds like the media is less willing to cover for Obama.

Tapper: What is the President doing to help create jobs.

Carney: The President is having meeting with his senior staff...

Gee, poor Carney. I almost feel sorry for the guy for having to defend Obama The Disaster.

The MSM will now start to try and resuscitate their credibility, but its been dead for decades. They need resurrection, but they have the wrong connections, if they're praying for that.

He's a lefty, but Tapper is a pure political animal and isn't entirely afraid to go after the hypocrisy and nonsense his own side spews.

It’s not a crack; it’s a sign of panic. Tapper is a liberal Dem like all the other MSMers. He’s watching Obama implode and doesn’t like it. Compare it watching your favorite Olympic marathoner gorge on donuts and neglect his training day after day. After a while you might say, ‘But *how* are you going to win a gold medal?’.

You don’t ask because you hope he’ll lose. You ask in hopes of snapping him out of it.

Careful Jake or you’ll be scratched from the White House Christmas card list.

A while back, the House and Senate rejected Obama’s calls to create a deficit commission so Obama appointed one himself and then totally ignored their recommendations. He has two positions on everything...the wrong one and the really wrong one.

Nice. It would seem that the public is losing patience.

Jake Tapper is an honest reporter. He has asked tough questions about Obama from the start.
