The One is more like a Zero…

Yet again, Barry holds an “open” meeting to campaign for one or other of his job and economy killing schemes, in this case health care. And once again, just like he did last week with his townhall meeting on Iran, he had ringers in the crowd in order to frame the narrative exactly as he wants it. Remember, this is the man who campaigned on his willingness to sit face to face with dictators and despots around the world and fearlessly persuade them of the error of their ways. The same man, however, who is afraid of the ludicrous lightweight Bill O’Reilly, or of any random reporter posing a question that has not been vetted. After all, the American press is renowned for its tenacity in questioning The One in a fearless and relentless fashion.

Yesterday, we learned that of the seven people he allowed to ask him questions, all seven were examined by White House staff in advance, from The Washington Post,

In the stage-managed event, questions for Obama came from a live audience selected by the White House and the college, and from Internet questions chosen by the administration’s new-media team. Of the seven questions the president answered, four were selected by his staff from videos submitted to the White House Web site or from those responding to a request for “tweets.”

Wait, I hear you all cry, at least the other three were randomly selected from the audience. Not so much. First from the above paragraph,

questions for Obama came from a live audience selected by the White House and the college,

and secondly,

The president called randomly on three audience members. All turned out to be members of groups with close ties to his administration: the Service Employees International Union, Health Care for America Now, and Organizing for America, which is a part of the Democratic National Committee. White House officials said that was a coincidence.

With a room full of lackeys the odds of Barry getting an unfriendly question were extremely remote. Ultimately, the only thing “open” about Barry is his disdain for our intelligence. When the tide eventually turns, and it will, he will be one whiny, stuttering single term loser.

Over at Patterico’s “Ooh, look. Something shiny…”

Michelle Malkin has much, much more from the same event. The most choreographed Presidency ever.
