Speaking at a high school in Norfolk, Obama took a few moments to address what he calls "the made-up controversy" of the day, Amie Parnes reports.
Obama said the McCain campaign moved to "seize an innocent remark and take it out of context because they knew it's catnip for the news media."
"See, it would be funny, but the news media decided that would be the lead story yesterday. This happens every election cycle. Every four years, this is what we do. This is what they want to spend two of the last 55 days talking about...Enough!" he said.
Obama called the attacks "lies, outrage and swift boat politics."
"These are serious times and they call for a serious debate...spare me all the phony outrage. Spare me all the phony talk about change."

I am female and all I could think of while he was speaking was, “What a condescending pr!ck!!!”

Poor Baby ... he needs his bottle.
Now Barry is blaming the press?!? The press has worshipped his ground, and now this is whipped up by the press?
Barry is in deep trouble.
That said, I think too much was made about the comment as well. But, when you look at the post from a blogger made late last week, then see that not only Obama but also his media hawks repeated the exact same words... well, we now know the Obama camp doesn't have an original bone in his body and has to plagiarizer a blogger to make a funny.
A punk and a whiner.
“These are serious times and they call for a serious debate...spare me all the phony outrage”
Excuse me? Who told the pig joke and is now feigning outrage? I thought this quote could be attributed to McCain toward Obama!
"The Infidel Woman Was Asking for It", again. As usual.
NO apology, none, nada, zip - nix that thought....he was calling out McCain for the “made up” controversy.....says McCain is afraid to take him on the real issues........you get the idea

LOL! Good one. :)
Nobody made this up. Obama is the one that made the statement and it follows to close to Gov. Palin’s statement about pit bulls and the people knew it. The other thing that is interesting is that this is the same type of statement that people use in the ghettos. Statements like “Your momma wears combat boots”.....only worse. This is part of their life and Obama is no different.
It is also interesting that Obama is really getting irritated about being called a muslim. Is he saying that he is embarassed to be associated with muslims?
The Lord O’Bama is laying down the law. The MSM had better get back on script.
Watch, some liberal milquetoast in the NY Times will write a column on how awful the media is for getting wrapped up in this.
I’d have been inclined to give BHO a pass on his remaark, but the way he’s handling the pressure speaks volumes about his temperament and thin skin. Hardly Presidential.
And he’s demonstrating that he’s incapable of admitting a mistake, or apologizing and “moving on”.
only thing i ever donated to ..Swift boat vets....Kerry should have been hung for a traitor.
