Talk About Staged!

Did any of you catch President Obama's "press conference" in Lisbon Portugal? He's been making the rounds--preaching to the world. But this particular press conference caught my attention right off. After he patted himself on the back for a job well done, he reached into his pocket, pulled out a paper and said he would now take questions. He looked at his list and called on the first plant, errh journalist, who happened to be a woman from PBS (George Soros funded). Her question was regarding the Republican resistance to Obama's agenda. He then gave an "outlined" answer to the woman's question. He continued in this manner for the entire briefing. Whatever happened to the days where journalists clamored to get their question answered first? I think it's shameless that journalists allow themselves to be used and manipulated in this manner. But then--what do I know?
