when even the sycophants at the NYT are complaining about aitch's overexposure, you know there's a problem..

Quote:
It has become his common lament. Challenged about difficulties with his economic or legislative programs, President Obama complains about the tyranny of “the news cycle,” pronouncing the words with an air of above-it-all disdain for the impatience and fecklessness of today’s media culture.
Yet after six months in office, perhaps no other president has been more attuned to, or done more to dominate, the news cycle he disparages. Mr. Obama has given roughly three times as many interviews as George W. Bush and held four times as many prime-time news conferences as Bill Clinton had by comparable points in their terms.

Well then they should create an Obama channel so he can go on whenever he wants.
While we're at it, no more "bad" news should be reported as it doesn't help the recovery we hit a few days ago. Only report good news. That will fix all our problems and then the President can do his job and not worry about the media undermining his administration.

Americans are getting sick of Government. Its everywhere and getting to be a menace. They break things then claim they can fix them.

Hopefully this lead to a revolt.
