Press corps expresses ‘frustration’
over lack of access to Obama

The Hill, by Meghashyam Mali

Original Article

Posted By:FlyRight, 2/18/2013 6:44:40 AM

The White House press corps on Sunday expressed frustration with the lack of access given to President Obama this weekend, during his trip to Florida. White House Correspondents Association President Ed Henry released a statement Sunday evening, saying that the press corps had not been given adequate access to the president and that the group would press for “transparency” in the future, according to a pool report.

We´ll see what they´re made of.

Why does press what access when its members are only able to ask Obama fawning questions? If Obama held a presser today, questions would be on his improved backswing, why he thought Republcans were undermining him, how Mooch´s ski vacation compared to his getaway, Rubio´s water bottle and how it feels to be honored on Presidents Day. There would not be a single question on his pattern of lies, his total lack of transparency, his enormous deficits, his failed stimulus, soaring health care premiums, falling living standards or Bengazi, Syria, Egypt or any country.

So just why does the press even bother complaining?

He can´t govern so he´s rubbing it in our noses. Have they tried calling Tiger´s favorite local escort service?

(Heard walking off the tee: "Tiger, what did that divorce cost?" "750 million." "Was it worth it?")

Regardless, Obama is still their guy. ´Expressing frustration´ and general whining will be the most that the press corp will do. Obama will flash those pearly whites at them once and all will be back to normal in the kingdom

Maybe the public should complain about access to the Press.

This would be the same "press corps" (propagandists) who´ve done nothing but run slavish cover-up operations for Dear Leader since even before his first coronation? Frustrated by lack of transparency? You´ve got to be kidding!!!!

Perhaps a urinalysis should be required before he´s allowed back aboard AF1? If Obama´s favorite recreational drugs are discovered, no admission.

In a related story, CNN reports this morning that in order to reduce deficit, Obama as flown back to Washington on Jet Blue.

Excellent idea, #8. The press has done nothing to date which would warrant them printing anything more that printing Bam Bam´s talking points. Oh wait......they did pick up on Rubio´s water obsession.

Whether the press has access or not it will be the same result. They have their marching orders and are good little soldiers. Every now and then they have to whine a bit to secure their fine reputations of being so unbiased.

They have done nothing but lie and cover up for Obama and his administration. They are pathetic sycophants who must bear much of the blame for the misery that we are all feeling and will continue to feel because their ideology was more important than truth.

Quite frankly, I´m glad they don´t have access to him. Nothing would change if they did, and I´m happy to have a day without him, without the constant reminders that he´s where he is and who he is, and what he´s doing every minute of every day he´s destroying the country.

I know it´s all still there, but if I don´t have to accidentally see his face or hear his voice in his current missive to his minions, fine and dandy with me.

Since they created him, and turned an unqualified socialist monster into POTUS, I guess they better figure out what they did wrong and do a better job next time.

Or else they could stay the hell away from the election process because they have proven time after time they are not qualified to select any of our leaders.

Since they aren´t getting access anyway, they should get up off their knees, wipe off their chins and do some real reporting. It wouldn´t get them any more access but it might save their papers/networks/jobs from going bankrupt.

Windex!

Maybe that’s what Obama needs to make his royal, regal, imperial administration more transparent. Up to now, it’s demonstrated about as much transparency as a lead-lined brick wall. How many times has he pledged that he “will not rest until” something or other is accomplished? At least dozens of times, I would venture to say; and he says it usually at rallies and campaign stops in front of enthusiastic, noisily cheering crowds of his loyal, low-information-voting supporters.

BHO, America’s Red, White and Blue Insomniac!

How times change.
I recall my father relating how the press used to excoriate Eisenhower for all the time he spent on the golf course... that´s Ike... the guy who successfully led the invasion of Europe.
I wonder how the two presidents compare when it comes to "time on the course".
Also, maybe someone could check to see if Ike ever spontaneously decided to go golfing at Fort Belvoir on a weekend afternoon which, in turn, inconvenienced all those golfers who had reserved tee times for that afternoon?
Funny, you never read any interviews of golfers who were tossed off a golf course for the convenience of the Commander in Chief.

Isn´t that "special?" Obama thinks President´s Day is a "vacation day" for presidents. Poor Tiger, trying to "teach" blockhead Obama anything "new" is a lost cause. Maybe Obama is recruiting Tiger with his "history" which impresses democrats for "something" in his administration.

If only we could get the press to believe that Tiger was at Benghazi , perhaps they might show some interest.
A golf game is the only interest they´ve ever shown in the

They´re only jealous because they love him more than all those other people. It´s got nothing to do with asking questions or exposing truth.

Their hero-worship has always been rewarded with backhands and cold shoulders and they´ve kept it up. To the point of frenzy during the campaign. Why would anyone think they actually care about news gathering now? They just want to be close to him again.

This points out how absolutely stupid these bozos are. He got reelected, thanks in large part to them and he doesn´t need them any longer.
He won´t hold another press gathering until 3 months before the 2014 midterms. And they will then love him and his party again.But until then, they will go wanting for an audience with his majesty.

Whether or not they have access to the President is not the main point. The questions they ask when they do get an opportunity are what count. To date, after more than four years, virtually none of these people have asked any questions that are pertinent to the Country. Either ask the tough questions or go to the society pages. Obama CANNOT answer tough questions because then all the World would know what kind of person he really is.

Last week, The Guardian and The Washington Post got their hands on a big story about the National Security Agency and its alleged connection to a handful of giant tech companies. The bombshell stories in both publications carried the by-lines of experienced reporters. The Guardian’s Glenn Greenwald, a well-known political commentator who also holds a law degree, has been covering national security issues for nearly a decade, and the Post’s Barton Gellman is a Pulitzer Prize winner who has a distinguished record covering privacy and security issues.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.
