Call me a cynic, but I've been dubious about just how accidental were President Obama's supposedly "hot mic" remarks about his budget negotations with the Republicans.
Does a president who has been frequently criticized for a lack of toughness really mind being "caught" sounding muy macho?
My skepticism was sharpened by GMA's report on the matter this morning. The graphic referred to Obama's "tough talk." And for good measure, John Avlon of the lefty Daily Beast was imported to declare that the president's supposedly candid performance "heightens his reputation for leadership." I know what you're thinking: what reputation?

GMA guest analyst claims Obama’s hot mic remarks on budget negotiations with Republicans “heightens his reputation for leadership.” What reputation? Ping to Today show list.
That’s one leftie’s opinion. I heard an angry, anti-American rant. That’s not “leadership”. That means somebody needs a diaper change or needs get the hell out of this country and maybe move to North Korea or Havana.
I’ve suspected from the beginning that this so called “mic slip” was choreographed. It was all too convenient
The timing of this couldn’t be more fortuitous- just after endless criticism of his lack of leadership in the budget negotiations and the illegal Libyan war.
Since when is talking tough behind someone’s back considered leadership?

“....but it certainly could be asked of you: “Do you think we’re stupid...”
Avlon is a regular guest on the John Bachelor program.
John just allows this liar to spew vile rhetoric without any comment.
“sounding muy macho?”
Bahahahahah! Hey Finkelstein, you lefty jackass. There is no way on this earth that the Girly-Man, President Erkel, could ever sound macho. Maybe his wife, but not him! Thanks for the good laugh this morning though.
That bite only proves he is what we Know he is,Marxist and Not what he pretends to be, An American
He’s a fraud.
John Avlon of the lefty Daily BeastAvlon would say that if Zero accidentally electrocuted himself in the bathtub.
Ive suspected from the beginning that this so called mic slip was choreographed.

My first thought on hearing that the “whistle-blowing” reporter was Mark Knoeller was — he would never publicize those entire “captured” comments without permission from the Obama team.
“Hey Finkelstein, you lefty jackass.”
Finkelstein = me, governsleast, and the comment was made facetiously, as the Spanish language version was intended to imply. Reading the entire post I think you’ll see it was quite critical of the president.
Priceless, wasn’t it?.....Obie criticizing pubbies for attaching riders to spending bills, which is how the dems operate every day.
I’m so sorry! I was referring to Avlon when I wrote that. I knew I had messed up the minute I posted it. My apologize. Thanks for posting the article and for your good work.
He sounds more like an asshole than a leader.
Very enlightening. You're right, Knoeller is a totally domesticated lapdog of the administration. He wouldn't have disclosed this unless he was told to by the White House.
