President Obama is holding his first news conference in more than three months Friday, but mainstream media reporters who cover the White House are stumped about what they should ask him.

ABC News reporter Jonathan Karl and CNBC reporter Eamon Javers took to Twitter today to get advice from their followers.

Obama is holding his first press conference since April 30 before leaving on a nine-day vacation in Martha’s Vineyard.

Meanwhile, Joel Polloak at Breitbart.com offered a list of 10 questions journalists won’t ask Obama, including topics such as the Obamacare delay, Benghazi attack, IRS targeting of conservative groups, peace negotiations between Israeli and Palestinian leaders, sex assault allegations against San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, National Security Agency leaks, his proposed cuts to the U.S. nuclear weapons arsenal, the Senate immigration bill, al-Qaida, the budget sequester, giving Congress Obamacare subsidies and George Zimmerman’s civil rights.

Others in the blogosphere began offering their own suggestions to the White House correspondents:

If you have nothing to hide, why are you spending millions to keep your past records from public view?

So....are these guys people who have been told to be real reporters/journalists instead of mouthpieces for the administration?

Did their wife finally make them go to the frigging grocery store and they figured out $6 bucks for a pound of 80/20 hamburger, or $5-6 bucks for a gallon of milk, $3 bucks or more for bread, $4/gallon for gas, etc is NOT a recovering economy?

Did they have to sit down and write some f@cking checks and actually see what takes a $29 phone line up to over $50 because of the 10 or so fees and such that the government has added? Or did they see that the gas company, electric company, the satellite companies, the alarm company, your insurance companies are adding all that crap too?

Where in the hell have these guys been?

Any journalist asking a serious question will be hounded by the left and soon looking for a new job.

Is it true Mr. Prez that people regarding Benghazi were forced to sign non-disclosure agreements? Is so, why?

Why didn't Hillary tell us anything in detail about what happened when there were dozens of people on the ground and why didn't they mobilize to help those in danger?
If they were ALL in danger, why didn't the military which were less than an hour away allowed to act?

How is your golf game. Do you use million man math to reduce your golf score?

If it is so great for us all, why are government personnel being given passes on Obama-care?

Most likely questions from the MSM:

1. Is it stressful being the best president ever?
2. How do you deal with the mean spirited Republicans who keep trying to obstruct your wonderful programs?
3. Why do the mean spirited Republicans keep trying to come up with fake scandals?
4. Isn't it unfair that you cannot run for another term?

I'd ask what he was doing during the time our consulate was being attacked and the ambassador being murdered and the next morning when he flew off to a fund raiser in Vegas. As a follow up I'd ask why, in light of those events, wasn't the fund raiser cancelled.

This reporter would be banned from any future access to the White Hut but I'd love to here Zer0's answer to that one.

Will someone remind us what Slick Willy’s response to that question was again?
