[...] Mostly Useless Media Whining Again Give me a break, Dana. Maybe the administration wouldn’t treat you like children if you didn’t constantly act like them. I know it’s tough not getting the fawning attention you so richly deserve but did the possibility ever occur to you that there are more important things about the nuclear summit than making sure the press gets their sound bites for the day? It’s also a little rich hearing you bemoan the dearth of pressers now, considering that when Obama was holding more, you chastised him for over-saturation. [...]

I’ve read, and commented elsewhere myself, where this idiot must have been planted, by Karl Rove himself, to discredit the left for generations. At what point does this fool stop being in campaign mode and get to work?

A little addition shows a total of 837 media and public events of one sort or another. In very approximate figures, that’s two a day, every day he’s been in office. If we assume only 1 hour of his time is required per event and that Obama works 10 hours a day, 7 days a week, that means he’s spending 20% of his time preening for an audience and not doing his job. Gawd I love that man.

So, who is actually running the country? Soros? Feinstein? Schumer? Pelosi? K Street?

Why is so much of the country so blind as to what kind of jerk is sitting in the White House?

Great post! I also noticed that recently Obama has too much exposure, almost every time you turn on your television it’s either Obama with a new issue or Obama delivering a speech. I mean come on it’s good to see that our president is doing something, but isn’t it a wee bit exaggerated to be on camera almost 24/7.

Good analysis here. An interesting question will be whether that ‘media oversaturation’ is driven by the abyssmal economic circumstances he inherited or Obama’s own love of exposure.
