As an outsider I have always been impressed with the idea that a current American President does not cast blame on his predecessor. This certainly was the case with President Bush taking the high road and not condemning former President Clinton. There certainly was sufficient material had Mr. Bush wanted to be vindictive. Current President Obama seems to have totally abandoned this tradition.

Unreal ... they are now unabashedly speaking FOR and defending the 0 and his policies. Journalism, as we've known it, is completely dead, gone, nada.

What a farce. Reading the lot, it's clear the squishy questions were obviously screened, and the answers from the 'journalist' are brazenly biased. How much lower can they go ?

Watch the little Fox video reporting on Obama’s positions on
Armenian genocide. The three turnips sitting on the couch respond with jokes about the reporter in Turkey. Something about an office poole, and whether he's run out of clean underwear. Darwinism is in reverse.
