CNN WH Correspondent Asks Obama if GOP Candidates Are 'Uninformed, Out of Touch, or Irresponsible'
2011-11-15
Remember during 2008's Democratic primaries when Saturday Night Live did a hilarious sketch mocking a CNN debate as being a disgraceful suck-up to then presidential candidate Barack Obama?

A repeat of this happened in real life Sunday evening when during a press conference from the APEC summit in Hawaii, CNN White House correspondent Dan Lothian actually asked the President if the GOP candidates were "uninformed, out of touch, or irresponsible."

After thinking a second -- probably wondering how fortunate he is to have such an unapologetic shill in the audience -- Obama responded, "That's a multiple choice question, isn't it?"

#10  While viewers who watched this are asking if main stream media reporters are 'Uninformed, Out of Touch, Obama Agenda-Driven and Irresponsible?'

Nah, we already know.

#9  I'm sure the reporter would also like to ask each GOP candidate "have you stopped beating your wife"?

I automatically assume all reporters are soulless sub human vermin, liars, traitors and fit only to be used as mulch or nailed to tress.


You're too charitable towards them.

#7  The news here is that CNN had any credibility left.

And there's that old Tshirt which said...

Rope, Tree, Journalist - some assembly required.

#6  Honestly, these sorts of things don't bother me anymore, since I automatically assume all reporters are soulless sub human vermin, liars, traitors and fit only to be used as mulch or nailed to tress.

Heck, lawyers are more human than they are and that is saying something.

#4  Yeah, I think I heard this question, called them hopefuls or something in quite a snotty fashion. Flushed whatever credibility I took into the review and changed the channel.

#3  It's called Freudian Projection. A chronic affliction of the MSM.

#2  That's like asking a squirrel if various other creatures, some of them feathered, are birdseed thieves.

#1  THEY-ALL-WANT-WAR-WITH-IRAN ...

versus

* CHINESE MILITARY FORUM > [NYT = Paul V. Kane]US PUNDIT:TRADE TAIWAN FOR US$1.0TRILYUHN | TO SAVE OUR ECONOMY, DITCH TAIWAN, given that China controls so much of our sovereign debt.

GUAM?, since as per STARS-N-STRIPES + MARINE CORPS TIMES Beijing considers the Marianas as one of the island chains that is an extension of its mainland = natural continental shelf.

STATE OF HAWAII?, since China Bloggers argue that Chinese explorers discovered Hawaii long before British Captain Cook, hence is actually Chinese territory; + moreso given that the "weak/declining US" can no longer reliably defend the isles from China's LR Second Artillery andor offshore PLAN Boomer subs.

Lest we fergit, UP TO 1/2 OF CONUS-NORAM?, because China + its growing population need the "living space"???
