Anyone else wonder why he is hand picking his questioners? Hmmm?
This guy won't get asked a hard question, and he probably hand picking his question. Am I wrong, or is he reading a list of people he wants to hear questions from??? He looks down as he asks for a question. What is this? Is he this scared of getting a real question? Holy cow he is going down the row.
Hey Tobias, who are ya kiddin. Not me. She went on with Couric how many times??? And she got nailed with tough question time and time again. Wrong.
Hey wat, you are kidding right. They grilled him daily.
The best line is, we have had people spend outside our means. Lmao, like you are doing now? He's talking about not knowing what they are doing in the marketplace. Uh, Mcfly, you never ran anything in the business realm, but you know how to fix this??? LMAO, this is great TV
Okay, Major Garrett nailed him on one, and he wouldn't look at him for one word of the answer. Plus he laughed at him, that is his reaction to a great question, a laugh at the questioner.

where has everybody been? the list of 'permitted questioners' is decided a day in advance of his press appearances, making his press conferences nothing more than thinly veiled political commercials:
"Some journalists are miffed that Obama decides the day before news conferences who he is going to call on-the fortunate ones are notified in advance-reducing the other reporters to the role of mere extras. Past presidents have generally worked their way around the room, starting with the wire services, networks, and major newspapers."

Ha i said the same thing last night, either the media gave him a free ride or he reviewed all the questions before hand.
His approval rating keeps declining i wouldn't be surprised.

All questions must match the answers:
1) Bush did it
2) It wasn't me.
3) All spending is good.
4) Any job is a good job even if it's a short term, temporary job.
5) It's the bank fault; not the government that forced those bad loans.

Better still, why aren't the reporters shouting out "Mr. President, Mr. President!!" in between each question like they alway used too?
Maybe because they know who will be called next.

He's probably giving them questions before the conference also. He's a coward. He doesn't have to hand downs to answer raw questions.

I'm not saying that it's right or anything like that, but he is hardly the first one to do this. Bush did the same thing. So did the McCain campaign. It's a trait of most politicians, not just this one.

He is picking his questioners.
How else would he answer them, have them all ask him at once?
It doesn't seem like he's going for anyone specific.
I do remember Bush once had a plant in his pool of reporters, tossed him softball questions and gave him favorable and flattering questions
(Turned out, he was a gay prostitute once).

He is looking at the seating and reading the persons name who is sitting there.
