1. Couldn't they get a REAL journalist to interview Barack?

Or were the real reporters off chasing Miss Mooseburger at the UN, so they had to use Matt "Where in the world is my brain?" Lauer?

2. What is Lauer's deal?! It was like he was attacking Obama senselessly.

First off: "lucky enough" Even Obama caught that shit and new where the entire conversation was going. Obama will win and Lauer made it out as though Obama had zero chance of getting the Presidency when all the polls state the reverse.

This leads me to something else. Lauer's unwaranted "attack" on Obama seems to me as though he has some deep seated resentment towards Obama since the primaries.


Secondly: Voters going crazy when Biden said there should be no bail-out. Biden disagrees with Obama. Obama even said he didn't choose Biden to agree with him but to challenge. The situation was dictated as though Obama has to have some control or dominance over Biden. Biden is a grown ass man and they will disagree. I think it's healthy in any relationship or we'd be saddled with shit...like we are currently.

Third: Clinton on the ticket?! What the fuck?! Clinton isn't on the ticket and he wasn't chosen. Get over it and move on. Why would Lauer even bring up that stupidity? At that point besides the first two above I wanted Lauer attacked. The man is unhinged to ask such a stupid question. That wasn't an interview it was pure and simple retardation grilling.


Obama deserved better.

3. Lauer is a douchebag

If he were a real journalist, NBC wouldn't have stuck him with the AM coffee clatch. He repeatedly asks stupid questions that prove he's an out-of-touch Republican McCain supporter.
