President Obam Changed Speech To Schoolkids And The Press Helped Him
September 16, 2009 / 11:46 am • By Dr. Melissa ClouthierAce is talking about the buried lede from the Washington Post:
When critics lashed out at President Obama for scheduling a speech to public school students this month, accusing him of wanting to indoctrinate children to his politics, his advisers quickly scrubbed his planned comments for potentially problematic wording. They then reached out to progressive Web sites such as the Huffington Post, liberal bloggers and Democratic pundits to make their case to a friendly audience.
So, what is more troublesome? The scrubbing? No, that’s good. The speech was rife with b.s. as it was…it could have been worse. No, it’s the cozy relationship the White House has with the press–like the Washington Post.
Please. Using Huffington Post and bloggers and pundits as a shield. Really, now. Why doesn’t the Washington Post just come out with it and explain why they were so helpful to the President during the Education talk debate?
