An
exasperated Barack Obama
scurried away Monday from the toughest news conference of his campaign,
telling reporters who kept shouting questions that he'd spent enough
time on the grill.
"Come on! I just answered, like, eight
questions," Obama, looking surprised, told shouting reporters as he
fled the room. "We're running late."
The Clinton campaign has
long complained that Obama gets soft treatment from the press corps.
But Monday's exchange was no pillow fight.
 The first question
was about a private talk an Obama economic adviser had with a Canadian
official - reportedly saying that the harshness of Obama's criticisms
of the North American Free Trade Agreement was for political show.
Last
week, Obama denied an initial media report about the conversation. But
after a Canadian government memo surfaced, he acknowledged yesterday
there was a conversation.
"When I gave you that information,
that was the information that I had at the time," he said. His camp
still disputes the memo's account of the discussion. (IOW, he's a liar)
Reader's comment
Barak has more problems:
Michelle Obama works for a not for profit hospital which charges
uninsured patients 3½ times more than the insured. On top of
that she
earns $190,000 a year at this hospital then makes speeches to young
people all around the country, urging them not to go into corporate
America but to, well only she can say it best.....
Michelle Obama - Zanesville, Ohio
'Don't go into corporate America. You know, become teachers. Work for
the community. Be social workers. Be a nurse. Those are the careers
that we need, and we're encouraging our young people to do that. But if
you make that choice, as we did, to move out of the money-making
industry into the helping industry, then your salaries respond Go
