Child's Play: Cub Reporter Bags Obama

11-year old reporting phenom goes one-on-one with Obama

He's interviewed Oprah, D-Wade and now President Obama. No, we're not talking about Rush Limbaugh, Anderson Cooper or Larry King.

Damon Weaver already has a resume to match all of those big shot media powers, and he's only 11.

Weaver, who will be starting the 6th grade next week at Canal Point Elementary in Palm Beach, was at the White House on Thursday to grill the president for an hour on issues much deeper than his favorite cartoon growing up and if he was bullied in school.

Looking dapper in a dark suit and tie, the seasoned reporter didn't shy away from the tough questions, tackling hot button issues like healthcare reform, education funding and crime.

Obama has all this time to vacation and to politically exploit a child “reporter” yet doesn’t have time to know what’s in this healthcare BS nor authorize Hawaii to release his birth documentation.

The kid would be at least as good a president as the current white house occupant.

Weaver, who will be starting the 6th grade next week ...., was at the White House ... to grill the president for an hour on issues ... deeper than his favorite cartoon ... and if he was bullied in school.

You mean, he doesn't work for MSNBC, ABC, CNN, The Times or any other liberal rag? Are we to believe that an 11 yr old has more backbone, more imagination and more journalistic than seasoned professionals? Hmmmm, I for one can accept that.

Now, it's still a pathetic attempt by Obama to play to the emotions of Democrats (cue "Feelings") instead of dealing with fact. What is even more pathetic, is that this kid may ask questions that the LibTards are too cowardly to ask.

I could just imagine my 11 year old with The BO.
She would chew him up and spit him out. All with respect and charm.

When I asked her what she would ask him, she said, “May I see your Birth Certificate?”

(the nine year old said, “What if your mother aborted you?”)
