Journalism? What's That?

Obama: The truth is we've released thousands of papers.

Ramos: But not all of them.

Obama: We’ve released almost all of them.


See what happens when you press a leader?

You get the truth.

Political journalists (I don't know who is worse, them or sports hacks) are worthless pieces of shits. Especially apologists who know they're apologists but feign a professional, non-bias front. Fuck those pukes. Except Anderson Cooper, he restored hope when he did his job and grilled Debbie-Wasserman Schultz and exposed her for the hack that she is.

In ONE Spanish language interview, American journalism was exposed. When you see jaw-dropping crap like this how can anyone not but conclude MSM is in the tank for him?

Obama's strategy of passing the buck and blame, claims of being taken out of context, Republicans blockage and politicking, or blaming the previous administration exploded in this interview.

It's as if the reporters were doing a wanking motion as he spoke. And boy did he talk in tongue, spinning sophist nonsensical explanations. This was a fast-ball soft ball league. Not under 55mph pitches from Wolf Blitzer or MSNBC.

The thing that blew my mind was this:

"I think it's important for us to understand that the Fast and Furious program was a field-initiated program begun under the previous administration," the president said. "When Eric Holder found out about it, he discontinued it."

Even I knew this was not true and the journalists knew it. It did not start under Bush. Bush's Operation Gun-runner was a different plan and was done in concert with the Mexican government. Fast & Furious was a botched secret plan. It's true Holder was absolved but resigning would be the honorable thing to do. Or the President could consider firing him. That's leadership.

"Asked for comment, White House Spokesman Eric Schultz said, “The President was referring to the flawed tactic of gun-walking, which despite Republicans efforts to politicize this issue, began under the previous Administration and it was our Attorney General who ended it.

There they go again. "What he meant to say you right-wing liars is..." It's not an exception but a rule now for Obama to have to explain "what he meant" and have the media spin and defend him. Not bad for a "great communicator."

***

His plan to reduce solve the cartel problem is to "reduce demand." Gee, good one genius. And how do you propose to do this? Double down on the War on Drugs? Go around touching everyone with your golden, mighty finger? Keep drugs away from schools?

I can't fix the economy (we all know why), and the Mid-East just exploded in my face (how can't they not like me?) but I'm gonna reduce America's dependency on drugs.

Jesus fucking christ.
