There's probably no connection whatsoever.

But the New Yorker writer Ryan Lizza, whose long, long article on Barack Obama's early political days in Chicago's ward politics (available here) was the reason for the magazine's controversial cover by Barry Blitt depicting Obama as a Muslim, has been barred from traveling with Obama on his foreign field trip this week.

Oh, sure there’s no connection. None whatsoever. Hey, this is the politics of change led by the new messiah! /s X 3/

This is the kind of so called new politics, change, and unifying tactics that we can expect from Obama.
Having a man so incredibly full of himself in the White House will be a disaster.

Obama is being such a little girl about this whole thing it's brilliant.

Imagine if the President refused accomodation to one of the many, many journalists who have poked fun at him.

He would be savaged in the media over it as an insecure, petty dictator.

The MSM better get used to this. Shutting down the media will be the first “change” on B-HO’s road to communism. He will take out the Bill of Rights one amendment at a time, and the First Amendment is the free speech amendment.

Even better would be for ncfool to ask a mod to remove that post.
