Why doesn't the WH press corps call Spicer on his BS?

[stopbush]

Again, he tells lies and they say nothing.

"Obamacare is collapsing under its own weight." That is a lie. The press sits there, confirming the lie through their silence.

For every step forward the press takes they take three backward.

1. The journos are laughing at he and trump and their level of fail

And Spicy is pissed.

2. The holy grail of "access"

[demosincebirth]

8. You said it!

[Idoru]

3. Because they don't have time

It would be the only question they would be able to ask, he spews bullshit constantly. They have to ask about the President's lies, if they are lucky enough to get a question in.

4. Spicer is a real piece of work.

Such a liar... and a total jackass.
I surprised the press is not throwing rotten fruit at him.
Yecch. Such a shithead.

5. I was struck by the fact that not one reporter asked him about the fact that there is no longer

any health care in the bill. There is no hospital, emergency, doctor visits. lab test, mental health, maternity, well child, etc. There is absolutely NO health care in it. It is only tax cuts to the rich. Why didn't anyone ask him about that? Disgusting.

7. If this were a normal, sane administration...

They would. But it isn't. They don't get hours of press conferences, they are lucky if they are called on unless they are Brietbart et al, Spicer eats up time going on rants, they have a list a mile long of lies, conspiracies, investigations and their publishers are on their asses to get a headline.

Let's say they asked that question. What would be the point. I can tell you what his response would be, a ten minute rant about the HORROR OF OBAMACARE.

This is a question you ask Trump if you are ever lucky enough to get it. Spicer is a waste of time.

6. I didn't watch the press conference but in the past he's only called on

reporters from conservative outlets. Like Laura Ingraham's Lifezette or Breitbart.

9. Sometimes the best one can do is let the liar continue

'please proceed governor' remember those words by none other than President Obama to rMoney in the debate
