Obama Instructs Journalists On How To Report His Positions
RCP ^ | 3 April 2012 | Anon

Posted on 04/04/2012 4:36:28 AM PDT by Rummyfan

"This bears on your reporting," President Obama said to journalists. "I think that there is oftentimes the impulse to suggest that if the two parties are disagreeing then they're equally at fault and the truth lies somewhere in the middle. And an equivalence is presented which I think reinforces peoples' cynicism about Washington in general. This is not one of those situations where there's an equivalency."

"As all of you are doing your reporting, I think it's important to remember that the positions that I am taking now on the budget and a host of other issues. if we had been having this discussion 20 years ago or even 15 years ago … would've been considered squarely centrist positions," Obama said a few moments later.

Either a serial liar or delusional. Either the dumbest man in America or a criminal. It’s one or the other.

It's obvious the tertiary chemicals used in cocaine manufacturing are eating this man's brain.

WOW!!! What arrogance.

The shame of this is, is that obama believes what he spouts to be true and the media does too.

He has got to be defeated in November.

I can not watch him on TV, and when I listen to talk show hosts replaying his quotes I can barely wait until he is finished.

I hear the hiss of a serpent when obama speaks... the hiss is audible even in his writings.

Barry has been WAY OFF of the TOTUS. Who is coaching him? He is trying to organize SCOTUS (a communuity who is fighting Barry’s style of community organizing) and now trying to re-organize the MSM who seem to actually be turning on him. Even SeeBS is reporting the gaffes. Wow!

I'd agree if I weren't 100% certain that those journalists immediately snapped to attention and saluted.

“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting an inexperienced man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama Presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their President. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their President.”

This is the same tactic employed by algore who said equal time to global warming dissenters was unwarranted as thed debate was over.

We know how that went.
