Obama Cuts Off Reporter, Lies About Senate Seat

In a rare moment of true journalism in today's world, a reporter asked Barack Obama a question that gets to the heart of the issue of the vacant Senate seat-Blagojevich-Emanual scandal: Obama's lies.

Obama stated early on that he was going to take a 'hands off' approach to the choice of his replacement in the Senate, yet proceeded to talk directly to Blagojevich about the choice, and then word came today that his chief of staff Rahm Emanuel talked to Blago 21 times about the seat.

Somebody, obviously, in addition Blagojevich is not being truthful here.

The truth must hurt. The video below shows Obama cutting off the reporter's question, lecturing him about 'not wasting his question.' Obama is clearly irked.

Take a look at a video clip from that news conference here.
