Obama and the Land of Enchantment

Yesterday at the President's 100 day lovefest press conference a NY Times writer asked what was most enchanting about the presidency? If I were Obama I would have answered:

"Perhaps what's most enchanting is how the press, such as you my fine sycophantic friend, roll over at these press conferences. Rather than ask me about today's news that GDP contracted at 6% or why I will finally allow Chrysler to file for bankruptcy after I wasted several billions 'bailing them out' since about December or why I apologize for America at every opportunity I have, you ask me questions such as these. Yes, I'd say you my friends are what I am enchanted by the most."
