Title: 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.

I expect the reporter will soon find himself audited by the IRS, and perhaps have his name added to the No-Fly List.

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.

Yeah, but will he be the postee or the poster?  [tinfoil]

And when it does my money will be on him blaming Bush.
