How soft were Harry Smith's lobs to Barack Obama? If this had been a slow-pitch league, Smith might still have been booted for insufficient MPH. CBS aired Smith's interview of the Dem candidate, conducted yesterday, on this morning's Early Show. After a clip of McCain saying he questioned Obama's judgment, not his patriotism, Smith teed it up for his guest.
HARRY SMITH: Many of the attacks that have come from John McCain's campaign have been, quite frankly, condescending. Were you surprised by that? Does it anger you?
Tough stuff! Smith didn't explain what is condescending about a candidate questioning his opponent's judgment, and gave no other example of the alleged phenomenon. Answering the "question," Obama allowed that it's "a little disappointing."

The schmooze-in continued . . .

Even by MSM standards Smith’s performance was a disgrace ping to Today show list.
When you’re running against a lesser intellect like Obama, anything you say is bound to be condescending.
I saw him interview the swift boat veterans during the 2004 election.
He could not hide his contempt for those veterans. He was and is a disgrace.
I dont watch shows that have features such as “America’s love affair with the corn dog!”...and other such drivel.
If anyone makes a voting decision based on the “reporting” on such shows they are doing a disservice to the republic.
**Even by MSM standards Smith’s performance was a disgrace ping to Today show list.**
WOW ... MSM and STANDARDS in the same sentence.. WOW
My only consolation is ... in a local journalism class at a local college, there are a few that actually admit to being Conservatives ... guess they’ll find work at the local BURGER KING, after they Graduate with a degree in Journalism.
I’ve watched NO MSM anything since having to try not to explain what ORAL SEX is ... to a 5 year old .. (THANK YOU BILL CLINTON)! Only time I have to deal with MSM is when my talk radio plays audio clips; and they usually Reinforce my EMBARGO of MSM.
Smith studied “Journalism” at The Fuzzywaddle University of Self-Esteem and Warm Hugs.
Watched both Today and Good Morning America and both sped past “housing gate” with Steponallofus and Jake Tapper agreeing that the McCain camp brought up a silencing counterpunch with Rezko.
I know of few in the media who are so far to the left.
Is it any surprise he is all over Obama's jockstrap?
some hard hitting questions from obamas today interview with ann curry on 4/1/08
CURRY: Coffee or tea?
OBAMA: Tea.
CURRY: Beatles or Rolling Stones?
OBAMA: Rolling Stones.
CURRY: Which president do you most want to be like?
OBAMA: Lincoln.
CURRY: Cubs or White Sox?
OBAMA: White Sox.
CURRY: Basketball or bowling?
OBAMA: Basketball.
CURRY: Not bowling.
OBAMA: You saw those gutter balls but, you know what, that shows that I’m willing to try new things.
CURRY: Were you trying to lose?
OBAMA: I never try to lose.
Lib pundits and various talking heads believe it’s absolutely despicable and horrendous that one candidate would challenge another candidate’s judgment, past connections, and deeds. Yes, how horrible that McCain brings up stuff that Obama did in his past. Of course Big Media never brought up anything Bush did in his past. (smirk)
Harry Smith is the epitome of the fully feminized man. He is, in effect, a woman.
They are ALWAYS so damned predictable aren’t they?
