The Media and the O: A Perfect Illustration

LISTENING IN: Media members held audio recorders up to a speaker to hear a news conference with President Barack Obama and Mexican President Felipe Calderon at the White House Wednesday. -- Pictures of the Day - Photo Journal - WSJ

Yes, this is what it's come to. Recording from a speaker onto recorders. No questions, no answers, just suck up the slop and pump it out the other end. Honestly, what is one to think of this odd man-child and his fluffers? "Contempt" seems too light.

Yeah, what can you say about a fetid swamp of lickspittle toadies?

The worst part is, do they even realize how insulted and degraded they are? If they do, do they care? If they don't, how stupid are they?

Damn, even I have more pride than that.

What loyal subject doesn't relish contact with their master? He's at least made some small space for them in his thoughts and sent a servant to hold a speaker for them.

They'll take what they can get and love it.

If you look carefully, the people in this picture are the same ones wearing burkas in the picture above.

I love the visage of determined newshound while accomplishing nothing more than being a surrogate for a microphone stand.
