Obama invited two of MSNBC’s most divisive liberal pundits–Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow–to the White House for an off-the-record briefing. (Obama Advisors?)

The White House has berated Fox News for days now for purportedly pushing an agenda and calling it news. So Americans may have been surprised when, as reported by Noel Sheppard, Obama invited two of MSNBC’s most divisive liberal pundits–Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow–to the White House for an off-the-record briefing.

As it turns out, Maddow and Olbermann were only two of the left’s heavyweights at the briefing. Yesterday, TVNewser received from the White House a complete list of names. Virtually all of them have their histories of shilling for the administration or Democrats generally, and of bashing conservatives.

Let us review the colorful histories of these pundits, and the reader can decide whether they “have a perspective,” in the words of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel (in the context of a Fox News attack).

Obama is one big cry baby, he invited liberal pundits Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow to visit with him to tell them that the Mighty Fox News is picking on poor little Barack and for them to protect him from the Fox! I have news for you Obama, more people watch Fox News. Glenn Beck has more viewers than Maddow and Olbermann together. Obama, Fox news ask the tough questions that your education isn’t good enough to answer even one question! Obama get your head out of the sand!

Obama Loses Bid to Exclude Fox News From Pay Czar Interview

The Obama administration on Thursday failed in its attempt to exclude Fox News from participating in an interview of an administration official, as Republicans on Capitol Hill stepped up their criticism of the hardball tactics employed by the White House.
The Treasury Department on Thursday tried to make “pay czar” Kenneth Feinberg available for interviews to every member of the network pool except Fox News. The pool is the five-network rotation that for decades has shared the costs and duties of daily coverage of the presidency and other Washington institutions.

But the Washington bureau chiefs of the five TV networks consulted and decided that none of their reporters would interview Feinberg unless Fox News was included. The pool informed Treasury that Fox News, as a member of the network pool, could not be excluded from such interviews under the rules of the pool.

The administration relented, making Feinberg available for all five pool members and Bloomberg TV. Read More

Obama slapped by Washington bureau chiefs of the five TV networks and rightfully should have been! Obama acts more like a dictator every day that goes by that he’s been in the White House!  Another lost for Obama!

Czar War Escalates Between Congress and Obama

The White House has told Congress it will reject calls for many of President Obama’s policy czars to testify before Congress – a decision senators said goes against the president’s promises of transparency and openness and treads on Congress’ constitutional mandate to investigate the administration’s actions.
The debate goes to the heart of weighty constitutional issues about separation of powers. The president argues that he should be allowed to have advisers who are free to give him confidential advice without having to fear being called to testify about it. Democrats and Republicans in Congress, though, argue that those in office who actually craft policy should be able to be summoned to testify because they do more than just give the president advice.

Like everything else that Obama tries to keep secret, we have to ask: What is Barack Obama hiding from the American people. No Obama transparency here which he promised during the campaign. Oh well whats another lie from Obama’s mouth!
I feel that some in congress has figured out that there are some dirty tricks between Obama, Czars and his policies. Maybe we will one day see a few in congress with backbone enough to stand up to this socialist president Obama!
