Wolf Blitzer interview with Obama
First, Obama did fine. Wolf was desperately trying to ask rapid fire questions in hope of making Obama would say something that would make news and enhancing his (Wolf's) reputation. He cut off Obama at least 10 times mid answer so he could move on to the next question when he saw that Obama was handling the question well. Wolf demonstrated what a thoroughly pathetic journalist he is. I am sure by this late date that Obama was bored and thinking to himself "Man, I will be glad when I don't have to put up with idiots like this."

1. Yep. Most of the questions are not looking for his answer: Just their own echo chamber.
Brokaw, Gregory: Become visibly annoyed when Barack out-thinks them.

3. "We here at CNN are happy for your daughter having a child" i almost vomited when i heard him
say that, like we, yes we here in the real world give a flying fuck about what you, yes you Wolf Blitzer and Cnn think about Mary Cheney's home life? I thought Cheney was going to rip his heart out of chest and eat it which would have been kind of cool.

4. I heard the CNN Reporter already claiming McCain's Campaign is jumping on
him saying he would put McCain in his administration. Calling him Presumptuous.

These people are pathetic

6. That answer was from an idiotic hypothetical question asked by a viewer
Obama prefaced his answer by saying that it would be presumptuous of him to answer a question like that. What a bunch of losers are CNN and McDesperate

7. i like Wolf
I didn't see the interview, but his job is to get candidates to go off message, otherwise the interview might as well be an ad.
