I don't know why the media ever asks GOP spokespeople pointed questions on their fuck ups

When they know that the only responses that they're going to get are talking points, dodges, and lies, instead of answers that have any semblance to reality.

Republicans NEVER fuck up, EVER. It's always, "You should be paying attention to Obama's failures", when it's the Republicans who usually own the lion's share of the problems that they're blaming him for.
They even go out of their way to concoct a Barack Obama that doesn't even exist, sometimes with utter projections of Republican actions. They accuse the President of the very things that they're doing.

Then we have no rebuttal and acceptance of the bullshit. The worse thing is the narrative that they prompt that "Both sides do it", when it's never even close to that being the case.

Their narrative makes them look as if they're always living on Bizarro world.

It's pretty damn maddening to see this media/GOP bullshit exchange in action.
