Leftwing Media, Race Card
King Obama Heckled by Disrespectful Reporter Regarding Unilateral Amnesty

The liberal left democrats don’t think people notice their double standards.
Obama bypassed Congress, acted against federal law, and ignored the Constitution, when he decided last Friday to announce that he (we assume through yet another misuse of an executive order) will stop deporting illegal aliens that are students and young adults that were brought here by no fault of their own. In the past Obama has said he can’t do such a thing without Congress, yet now he has changed his mind and thinks he can do it unilaterally, probably because he needs the votes, and this guy is willing to stomp all over the law to get votes during the election season.
President Obama said, “Effective immediately, the Department of Homeland Security is taking steps to lift the shadow of deportation from these young people. Over the next few months, eligible individuals who do not present a risk to national security or public safety will be able to request temporary relief from deportation proceedings and apply for work authorization.”
He called it a temporary solution, also saying, “It’s the right thing to do.”
It may make you feel warm and fuzzy, and you may convince a few people to vote for you as a result, but, Mr. Obama, you are still acting illegally by doing this in the manner that you are doing it.
Here’s the kicker, however. When delivering his speech, a reporter from the Daily Caller, Neil Munro, shouted a question, “Why do you favor foreigners over American workers?”
The liberal media went nuts. How dare this reporter interrupt His Majesty like that!
The Daily Caller is being reported as a conservative rag in the mainstream media’s attacks, and the press is aghast that Neil Munro would dare “heckle” the President of the United States like that.
Heckle?
Didn’t the liberal media do the same to Republican Presidents? I seem to remember Sam Donaldson doing it to Ronald Reagan, often, and the liberals did it back then with a specific reason in mind. Their interruptions were a part of a technique, trying to make Reagan look as if he either was ignoring them, or that he was aloof and unresponsive. That way, without necessarily saying it, the liberal media could paint Reagan as senile and feeble. It was a part of their attack campaign. They did it to Nixon, too. And to both Bush Presidents.
But if anybody dares do it to Obama. . . well, that is unacceptable. The Messiah does not get interrupted. And Obama refused to acknowledge Munro’s question, just saying he wasn’t answering questions.
Fine, don’t answer the question. But please, does the media really think it is that big of a crime to do what Munro did, when all of them were party to doing the same thing to the Republican Presidents?
The news media used to say that it was important for the media to do as Munro did. It was the media being the watchdogs. But not when it comes to Obama. He’s too frail. He needs to be treated with kid gloves. The liberal media is doing what they can to protect him from mean ol’ reporters like Munro of the Daily Caller.
Oh, by the way, many of the members of the leftwing media said that Munro did it because he’s racist.
My friends, the race card is evidence of desperation. Their messiah is in big heap trouble, and they are willing to do whatever it takes to protect the poor little man-child.
