Obama to Press - Turn off your games, it's time to do your homework.
Now that the surprise of releasing his BC has worn off, I re-watched his Press Conf. I think this was totally directed to the Press NOT the birthers.

Not only did he jokingly say to Chuck that the networks wouldn't break into their programming if he was discussing anything else...

He also said that he gave a Speech on the budget and all you reported on was the Birther Issue.

He said there was a segment of people that will believe what they want, but there is too many important things going on to be distracted by the circus.



Now we'll have to wait and see if the Press will finally do their jobs.

1. the birthers wouldn't exist without the press.
yes, of course Obama would give them a little bit of whatfor under the radar but of course they have all (for the most part) gone comotose or are as stupid as the birthers.

When George Junior had questions surround him about his National Guard duty the press mostly protected his white cottage cheese ass. But now it's okay to ask for the PoTUS' birth certificate because, well, ya know.....

This is so very very much about blatant racism but forutnately for the Birthers it's not only the crazy fringe right that are filthy bigots.

2. Unfortunately they are doing their jobs. They are owned by the right.
