Sorry, Owner.

I was simply providing a video which showed three reporters of the White House Press Corp asking about the lack of a plan.

I thought it pretty much speaks for itself.  How you are trying to tie it into the birther controversy is beyond me.

The WH Press Corp isn't notable for being in the Republican's corner (nor the birther's either).

here is the kindergarden version of the one he submitted back in february, it maybe needs to be dumbed down even more.....

It got an out of hand dismissal and so he said what should it be?

They said corporate appeasements, and drop Social Security and Medicare.
He said no, try again.

They said, corporate appeasements, and drop Social Security and Medicare.

He said how about a big deal where we actually cut severely and get some revenue?

They said, No. corporate appeasements, and drop Social Security and Medicare, and puffed the numbers, and were sent back for mathematical errors, not in the country's favor.

Or did somebody miss something, while raising concerns about schmoozing, teleprompters, and polls portraying shit that don't mean shit?

"Raise the debt limit" You had no problem voting to raise it a 7 trillion dollars, what's so special about now? ( excepting of course the racists who just have a problem with Obama because he's the HNIC )

So, in a nutshell, the press corp is too lazy to do their homework.

Maybe the WH should release audio tapes to make life easier for the "American people" who were not paying attention before hand. ::chuckles::

The way he kept interupting the spokesmen showed that he wasn`t their for info but for a fight.

Trash talk gets more ratings than boring exchanges of info and data.

Well, the problem is that the Obama budget that was linked to above was DOA, and the entire point of the negotiations is to arrive at a new one.

Congress (both Dems and Repubs) have provided such updated budget plans, and had them scored by the CBO.  The WH appears to be taking the route of "I'll know it when I see it".

Funny that there were some 'heavy hitters' out here who sort of forgot what they said, at the time, unless they were lying then too, but I don't know how you sort out the lies from the lies in that case.

This is only one thread from that time, and I could round up more of the usual suspects, if I wasn't so fuckin' lazy........

And what is wrong with that?  His is DOA, theirs have been DOA, and they are off to their respective corners scribbling and bullshitting and making unpassable budgets.....

Why the fuck should he waste my  tax dollars on scribbling with pencils and stationary and actuarials and accountants and secretaries and other staff writing something they are going to gainsay again, howl at the top of their lungs about, got nothing worth passing, and walk out of the office and negotiations on?

How might it bring more light than heat, when any proposal is met with vituperative rhetoric, and nothing else of substance, it won't make any headway, and not in his baliwick any longer, he fulfilled his constitutional and statute duty, now it is time for the rest of the clowns to fulfill theirs.     (put the question mark anywhere in there amongst em, Firm).

Nothing about it, what I am trying to understand is how it confuses you.

Hmm, there were three separate reporters who asked him the question.

Conceivable that could be a "Fox" reporter, a WSJ reporter ... but who would be the third one?
