The most notable takeaway from Jay Carneys incomprehensible Friday appearance had little to do with his Klingon grammar. Carney does not represent the historical value of the event you should be wise to forget his performance, and instead take note that he was flanked by the entire room, without exception.
Do not underestimate the significance: the Obama administration has not faced such an onslaught of truth-seeking since he took office in 2008, and further, no Democratic administration has been charged from all sides like this in recent memory.
That press conference was unthinkable just days ago.
For a left-leaning reporter as surveys have confirmed most are watching the WH Press Corps attack a Democratic administration regarding a scandal that could very well topple it must objectively represent a career-turning event.
Just hours earlier, many lefty journalists still felt exceedingly comfortable advancing the administration talking points, offering denigrating coverage of the whistleblowers, the wingnut conspiracy theorists, and conservatives in general. Professionally, this meant offering subpar commentary with little chance of notable criticism penetrating the MSM bubble.
But now?

The Big Lie...it woked for Hitler and the Nazis. Perhaps the MSM finally has awakened to the fact that they have been acting de facto as the propagandist arm for a corrupt and immoral regime. A free press they are not.
The only time a Democrat will face criticism is when the MSM wants him to do something. “Either do what we want or we’ll expose you”. Look for a big announcement from the President.
Been calling for that as well.
Since when do American presidents take it upon themselves to COMMAND secrecy be observed before, during and after a secret meeting with a so-called "free press"
What happened to the much-touted "transparency" in this administration promised by the promise-abuser?
Every media gerbilist that agreed upfront to that secrecy caveat and participated in that devils' conclave doesn't have an ounce of integrity, honor or love of country....and a roster of their shameful names should be published far and wide for all to see.

That wasn’t a tough presses. They were all too calm and polite. I have seen tough presses and that was not it.
They did finally ask some pertinent questions though.
LOL Great post/analysis.
OK, so if it’s starting to be a little OK to go after Obama, I wonder which enterprising journalists are going to be the next Woodward and Bernstein? Who knows, maybe W&B will reprise their own work against the Nixon White House, which couldn’t hold a candle to Obama in the cover-ups.
