Obama Dinner Joke: "Press In Bed With Me"Obama's dinner joke: Press in bed with me It's amazing how this man can say and do anything and get away with it. And they called Ronald Reagan the Teflon President? The not so funny thing is that his joke reflects more truth than one could possibly care to admit. --------------------- President Barack Obama joking with the media: At the 65th Annual Radio and Television Correspondents Association Dinner last night, President Barack Obama openly acknowledged that mainstream journalists are to be credited with making him a celebrity and even joked that an NBC news anchor is in bed with him. "Why bother hanging out with celebrities when I can spend time with the people who made me one?" Obama asked the crowd of black tie journalists and media personalities gathered at the Washington Convention Center. "I know where my bread is buttered." His joke about "NBC Nightly News" anchor Brian Williams, however, raised the ire of critics who have complained about the media's lack of objectivity in granting Obama favorable news coverage: "I have to admit though, it wasn't easy coming up with fresh material for this dinner," Obama said. "A few nights ago, I was up tossing and turning trying to figure out exactly what to say. Finally, when I couldn't get back to sleep, I rolled over and asked Brian Williams what he thought." Wow.... the man jokes and speaks volumes of truth at the same time. This whole Obama Mania is really getting out of hand. Ummmm folks... Our president is NOT a god and he doesn't deserve to be treated like one? WTF is up with the press these days???? Git Real's blog | login to post comments |
