Dragged reporter speaks out to KABC


Freelance journalist Rev. Brenda Lee speaks to KABC about being forcibly removed when she wanted to give a letter to President Barack Obama. Lee is a Catholic priestess. I am not sure what that is, but I'll go along with it for now.

Are We Communists Now? Journalist dragged away from meeting Obama



A reporter from the Georgia Informer (Macon, Ga.) was forcibly removed from a press area and dragged away kicking and screaming shortly before President Barack Obama arrived to depart California. The reporter, Brenda Lee, said she has White House press credentials. She wanted to give a letter to Obama urging him "to take a stand for traditional marriage."

Is this the America we live in now? The press are dragged away? Where is this woman's First Amendment rights?

Gibbs: 'Contact the White House' about plane


Obama says "It was a mistake and it will never happen again." This man knew all about it. The "Buck Stops Here."



Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is a glorified idiot. He is supposed to be a professional spin doctor. I don't buy him not knowing where Air Force One is. He travels on Air Force One! Everyone important at the White House knew about this photo-op in New York. They used to say, "The Buck Stops Here." President Obama better realize that his White House is not as transparent as he says it is.



Imagine if this happened during the George W. Bush administration. Does nothing stick to Obama? The Obama administration is heartless.

Obama administration frightens New Yorkers with flight


An 'Air Force One' plane few over New York City today followed by at F-16 and nobody told the New Yorkers. This flight flew just over the Statue of Liberty, and word is that the statue even ducked when she saw the plane. It was that close. This was in New York City. The city that still is uneasy when it comes to planes, but the war on terror is over. So it's back to normal and President Barack Obama doesn't care. Neither does the best press secretary in world history, Robert Gibbs.

Nobody even told New York mayor Bloomberg.

This act by the United States Air Force, the White House and the FAA was so insensitive. And this was all for a photo-op? How realistic is seeing Air Force One flying next to the Statue of Liberty? Come on. And, now New Yorkers may not think that the next terrorist attack is a real occurrence. This was the most idiotic thing the government could ever do! By the way, Obama says we must watch our carbon emissions and how much gas was wasted during this flight?

Obama is an idiot and this act was horrible.
