After going a period way longer than Bush II ever did without facing the Press Obama goes on The View!

First up I'm going to use this as an excuse to post this picture that was made following McCaine's appearance on The View. I wish I could remember the name of the woman who drew this.


With that out of the way lets move on to the pathetic state of the world where the "leader of the free world" doesn't even pretend to be accountable to the tame media thus forcing five women who present a light entertainment show to pick up the slack. Here is the Guardian's blow by blow account.

Note how much Obama blames the media he roundly ignores for problems in the country. If those darned newspaper folks were just a little bit less nosey and just believed what he said everything would be swell and dandy. With that said The View's presenters didn't softball him and did about as well as you could expect any journalist to do in this day and age (which is poorly, but blame journalists, not them, for that.)
