The press is getting restless with the Golden Boy.

You know it is getting bad when they compare Obama's non-answers and evasions to those of George W. Bush. From Dana Milbank at the Washington Post.

But Obama's response to Blagojevich questions has been decidedly junior varsity. Begging off because of an ongoing investigation? Hiding behind Patrick Fitzgerald's skirt?

What did you expect from the commies puppet? Did you think all of his radical "buddies" would let him have control of anything? He only spoke well with a teleprompter for gosh sakes. Red diaper babies don't think...they kiss butt.

Well they sure vetted the hell out of Sarah Palin. It didn't occur to them that they may have wanted to find out where the actual Democrat presidential nominee stood on the issues. And now . . . he ain't talkin'.
