Obama actually takes a challenging interview!

I hate the man and all his policies, but our news system has become politically polarized with conservatives only getting interviewed by Fox and libs only getting interviewed by CNN/ABC/et.al., so I have to give him at least a polite golf clap for doing this.

Too bad it was 2 and a half years AFTER the last election.
"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist."

I expect the reporter will soon find himself audited by the IRS, and perhaps have his name added to the No-Fly List.
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

So you award an American president a polite golf clap for taking ONE less-than-obsequious interview? Why?

(Though I seem to recall him spending some time with Bill O'Reilly, so...)

I heard the interview. He received the same treatment that the MSM gave McCain, Palin, Hillary, and just about every Republican primary candidate.

Obama's problem is that he's not used to being asked hard questions, and he doesn't take criticism or challenges well.

I'm waiting for Obama's "postal moment."  It will come, oh it will come.

And when it does my money will be on him blaming Bush.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
