There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

Jon Swift wields his scapel to dissect the disaster of President Elect Obama’s first press conference. As Andrew Sullivan would say, money quote:

Conservatives were shocked when Obama snubbed Fox News, the country’s only fair and balanced network, by not calling on its reporter during the press conference. “Wisdom and judiciousness were not exactly evident,” scolded RedState, where “wisdom and judiciousness” are dispensed by the bucketful. Apparently, Obama still holds a grudge against the network, and its president Roger Ailes, for reporting that he went to a madrassa as a child, joking about assassinating him, referring to him as a socialist, attacking him for calling his grandmother a “typical white person,” calling his cigarette smoking “”a dirty little secret” and asking its viewers “Would you vote for a smoker?,” mixing him up with black former congressman Harold Ford Jr., making a joke that his name was similar to Osama Bin Laden’s and who knows what other perceived slights. Unfortunately, the Fox reporter was prevented from asking such very important questions as which cabinet post William Ayers will be appointed to and which policies from the Communist Manifesto Obama was planning to implement first.

All seriousness aside, what bleeping planet do the wingnuts live on?

Oh! Oh! I know! (jumping up and down waving hand in air)

Camazotz.

Watch the presser here. See whether you can find all the gaffes that Jon Swift found:
