Obama distances himself from super PAC ad in rare press conference

President Obama, in a rare press conference Monday, disputed accusations that he’s running an unfairly negative re-election campaign – as he emerged to take questions from the White House press corps amid mounting criticism that he’s been ducking them.

The president answered a wide range of questions during the 20-minute question-and-answer session, including one about the veracity of a super PAC ad that implied Mitt Romney played a role in the death of a steelworker’s wife.

“I don’t think Governor Romney was somehow responsible for the death of that woman,” said Obama, who also made clear he didn’t approve the ad.

Or uses executive privilege to cover up the facts in the murder of a US border agent and hundreds of Mexican citizens.

Isn't that special? He did not say the ad was a lie when it has been proven to BE a lie. What a damned coward.

When you are an inaction figure, and you specialize in leading from behind, being a coward is a bonus.

He is choosing his words to appeal to his base.
