NYT: White House advisors totally surprised by Obama-Clinton press conference
Hot Air ^ | DECEMBER 10, 2010 | ALLAHPUNDIT

Oh, I’ll bet they were. Say what you will about Axe, Gibbsy, and the rest of the crew, but I’d like to think they have the basic political common sense to avoid photo ops where the president has to skip out after a minute or two to go eat gingerbread cookies.

I’d like to think The One had the same basic political common sense, but … we learn something new every day, don’t we?

The leader of the free world and the ex-leader wandered a deserted hallway, past the offices of the senior advisers, only to discover the door to the press corps briefing room locked.

Going to the party is part of the job
Answering reporters is not part of the job


He has no clue about what the job is. He must have been watching Sarah Palin’s Alaska, Dancing with the Stars, reading Sarah’s book, watching video of her book tour, watching her on Barbara Walters, reading her op-ed in the WSJ, and going totally flippin’ nuts. His current job has nothing to do with taxes. It’s trying to find out what the hell Sarah is doing with Greta and Franklin Graham in Haiti.

“Something serious is up this evening, according to my cousin, an insider at the DNC in DC (sent me a text.) Joe Biden might be the next POTUS by Monday evening.”

Well the Democrats are so angered by him, they may be the ones next asking for his Birth Certificate.

Ubama was slipping out for a couple of lines and a smoke, guaranteed.

What you been smokin’? Bill COMPLETELY punked Obama, and more than a little gleefully. He took the podium and offered coherent answers to the press without a teleprompter. I’m no Bill fan, but he ACED this little encounter.

Yes, but he will pass the brain death protocol in flying colors. So who does that leave in the chain of succession....oh no....

I have never seen this happen before! That was really strange in a twisted sort of way. First things first for Obama! Party hearty!

I bet BHO is steaming tonight. My head is still reeling.

Oh yea, I’ll bet he threw a damn fit and had to be sedated. My head is still reeling too. Still amazed and the more I watch the videos the more I am convinced Odummy was punked by Slick Willy. Sure no fan of Willy but compared to Odumbo, he looks downright good at this point. Anyone that can take that Kenyan America hater down a notch or two wins some brownie points.

This could be the single defining point in his Presidency where he lost all hope of reelection (a good thing), and it will played for years to come. Imagine the campaign ads.

first 30 seconds of the video at the hotair link sets up what is being described as BC taking over. Now, BC may very well have exaggerated his role in this (it got good to him), but it was definitely planned for BC to take the podium, 0 to leave, and BC to take questions.
I suspect 0 expected BC to praise how well 0 was handling things, but when 0 was cornered to return the favor to BC .... he chose THAT moment to boogie on out.

Hi LaTrina! Must be those wikileaks!

Drip, drip, with the big splash on Sunday night/Monday morning?

VP Hillary Rodham Cankles. UGH.

“ I don’t want her mad, please go”

And he WENT, apparently both men fearing the wrath of Michelle? North Korea, Iran, China, Venezuela, Russia = no problem. Michelle = nuclear option?

This was truly a video bonanza Christmas gift for the Clintons from the Obamas. Maybe Obama will be up for another Nobel Peace Prize next year for keeping Michelle happy this year.
