Vice President's staff lock journalist in a closet for hours during a fundraiser to stop him talking to guests
By SIMON NEVILLE

The White House website proudly says ‘President Obama is committed to creating the most open and accessible administration in American history.’
But try telling Vice President Joe Biden’s staff that, after they held a local reporter in a closet for hours after he was invited to cover a Florida political fundraiser because they did not want him talking with the guests.

A few words come to mind here.  Kidnapping, false imprisonment, transparency(or lack of) , impeachment.....

Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

Well, the journalist was an ignorant fool for agreeing to it.

I agree.

Un. ****ing. Believable.

How sweet it would be if he just happened to stumble across a shoe box stuffed with errant university transcripts, Indonesian passport and a long form birth certificate.

I hope this chap at least had the good sense to piss in the slippers before he was let out. :naughty:

Just ten days ago, President Obama’s spokesman Jay Carney told reporters: ‘journalists should be protected and allowed to do their work.’

A liberal shoving someone INTO a closet.

There's a great joke here, just waiting to be made by someone funnier than I.

Funny thing is, the Sentinel and their reporter have their noses so far up the administration's asses, even they're trying to downplay it.

Rush commented some years ago that the typical Dhimmi'Rat voter - the ones you and I could be neighbors with - suffer from a version of "battered spouse syndrome".  Somehow they've got it in their heads that they truly love the kinds of asshats they put into office, and whatever these ****ers do to 'em, they (the Dhimmi'Rat voters) somehow deserved it.

This analysis seems somehow appropriate here, for some reason.  :whatever:
