Like the discovery of gambling in “Casablanca,” the mainstream media is shocked, shocked! to learn there is chaos and back-stabbing in the Obama White House. The media missed the story for the same reason Capt. Renault missed gambling at Rick’s Cafe: They chose to.
A cash kickback did the trick in the film. In real life, the Washington pack turns away from the truth for something less forgivable.
Three years after President Obama took office, much of the national press corps remains remarkably uncurious about what has gone wrong inside the land of Hope & Change. Whether still mesmerized by hypnotic chants of “Yes we can” or afraid to risk access by asking unpleasant questions, the press largely has failed to pierce the secrecy surrounding all the president’s men, their conflicts and policies.
It is a shameful dereliction, given that the Great Recession has left 25 million Americans out of work or looking for a full-time job, and the national debt has reached 100 percent of GDP. To state the obvious, no Republican president ever enjoyed a similar lack of scrutiny during a national emergency.
Consider that nearly all of Obama’s economic team left in stunningly short order, yet no newspaper, magazine or broadcast news show connected the dots. Only author Ron Suskind late last year exposed the incompetence and bitter tensions behind the failed policies the team produced.
Suskind’s “Confidence Men” showed that Obama’s lack of experience and overconfidence created a mash-up of male egos that caused top female staffers to complain their views were not taken seriously. Suskind also showed how Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner ignored harebrained Obama decisions that would have rocked the financial world, such as effectively nationalizing Citibank.

The actors were spotted in the Oval Office by photographers waiting outside for the president to take off for a trip to Chicago.

..There was a good cartoon in today’s Post, Dumbo standing in a clown suit and someone asking him where his costume was....*smiles*...
Obama is the biological and ideological issue of 1960s Marxist-Alinsky spoiled brats. His administration is composed of those very same (aged) spoiled brats and their ideological issue (little spoiled brats).
SNCC's Stokely Carmichael made it clear about women by declaring that the only position for women is prone.
It continues and we thought one lone Clinton intern was a scandal (and dozens of others of various relations to the Oval Office).
absolutely spot on...
God I hope Newt is the next POTUS. He will shake the MSM inside out and upside down.
He also said: “What the liberal really wants is to bring about change which will not in any way endanger his position.”
Hoops and Charges = Hope and Change. Obama made “waves” in his speech before Greek Pillars; his played basketball too. The entire Nancy/Harry Congressional/Senatorial playbook under the first two years of the Obama Administration was Hoops and Charges - they just went right to the basket. Take the multiple stimulus bailouts, right down the flusher.... Shoved their way into our pocket books and now they want more, more stimilus and 4 more years.....
OTOH, Obama has always seemed .... short .... somehow. Midgetlike, almost.
