#11  pass the popcorn is right...I don't like either entity, the press or chairman maobama. However, taking your kids to get an ice cream is not news worthy. I think there ought to be limits. I don't care where the guy goes on vacation or what he looks like w/out a shirt on. This is all just a sad commentary on where we are as a culture. The obssesiveness w/celebrity is sickening.

#8  I can't wait until it dawns on the press that Obama hates them more than Bush did. You will be able to tell when all the 'woe is us' and bad press starts.

#7  Don't worry, the media will be the 'battered spouse' who'll always return to their batterer, for the same failure of real self esteem usually associated with deep seated [and in this case, justified] but never articulated nagging self doubts. They need him to reaffirm their worthiness. It usually doesn't end well for either party. Pass the popcorn.

#6  The Messiah should be more tolerant of his worshipers.

#5  The media served its purpose as far as he's concerned. He's just torked that the peasants apparently didn't get the memo the day after the election to go piss off.

#4  After ordering a tuna melt on 12-grain bread, Obama approached reporters and placed his hand on the shoulder of pool reporter Philip Rucker of The Washington Post, who was scribbling away in his notebook. “You don't really need to write all that down,” Obama said.

Next time Obama, don't say a word, just slap Rucker into tomorrow. They'll get the message.

#1  But Obama seems to be struggling particularly hard, particularly early.
Is anyone particularly surprised?
