Amos,

aMOS,

" in your rush to make Obama look bad, that the HuffPo question producedone of his weakest answers in the conference, and was anything but a placating softball querstion."


So, from the following comment you are saying above that not only is Obam doing what Bush was criticised for doing, but that he is lass compatent at it as well?



"During the eight years of the Bush administration, liberal outlets such as the Huffington Post often accused the White House of planting questioners in news conferences to ask preplanned questions. But here was Obama fielding a preplanned question asked by a planted questioner -- from the Huffington Post.

Pitney said the White House, though not aware of the question's wording, asked him to come up with a question about Iran proposed by an Iranian. And, as it turned out, he was not the only prearranged questioner at yesterday's show. Later, Obama passed over the usual suspects to call on Macarena Vidal of the Spanish-language EFE news agency. The White House called Vidal in advance to see whether she was coming and arranged for her to sit in a seat usually assigned to a financial trade publication. She asked about Chile and Colombia. "
