Those who say Obama is super-intellectual may be right. But, about some things, he sure as hell ain't bright. Does he just expect to get away with holding cozy meetings with a few of his staunchest followers with MSM, and leaving out those who report the truth about him? Never mind - Yes, I know he does.
The media folks who met with him should feel like fools. BTW - Tingle Legs not invited. lol

No Worry That He Is Too Fast For The House
Obama opened a new front in his courageous War on Fox by inviting a select group of President Approved Pundits , including Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow, in for a private briefing.
A more subtle President would have limited the conversation to such lofty and pressing topics as Iran, Afghanistan, and the outlook for health care reform. A more subtle man would have allowed these keen pundits and opinion leaders to connect the dots for themselves and marvel at the good fortune that led the Prom King to walk all the way across the high school cafeteria to sit at their table. "OMG" they would whisper to each other, "I am like, so glad we don't hang with those mean Foxes that are always passing mean notes about The One."
Well. Maybe subtlety is not in the Chicago playbook. Or maybe Obama thought his audience was too dumb to figure it out for themselves. Or both! The Obama Way is, if you have a message, grab a jackhammer:
Speaking privately at the White House on Monday with a group of mostly liberal columnists and commentators, including Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann of MSNBC and Maureen Dowd, Frank Rich and Bob Herbert of The New York Times, Mr. Obama himself gave vent to sentiments about the network, according to people briefed on the conversation.
MORE: If you've lost NPR... Not to mention Anderson Cooper. But not all Obama Approved loyalists have abandoned their posts! NY Times Obama Approved reporter Jim Rutenberg kept the lid on the ludicrous Administration flip-flop on the White House press pool. 48 hours after press flack Robert Gibbs said it was up to the White House Correspondents Association to determine eligibility for the press pool, the White House suspended contemporary notions of a free press and tried to bar Fox News from a routine interview. The Times noted the incident but not the sudden reversal.
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union.... Men, their rights and nothing more; women, their rights and nothing less. ~Susan B. Anthony
He didn't invite Chrissy? Maybe Obama is playing hard to get, but he'll be crying in his newroom all weekend over that.
Obama is such a child. Along with the others kicked out of the treehouse,this will just increase resent and dissention - even Helen Thomas has made some very public remarks on how terrible this administrations' PR techniques are. Obama can't help acting litle the little tinpot dictator that he is.
Unbelievable! Are these guys in high school or something? And that's with all due respect to high school students who might be more mature than the people in this administration.
