"We are SO non-biased!"

Somtimes real events are far more bizarre than fiction.

Whether you call it "The Drive-by Media" "The State Run Media" (not original terms, credit Rush for both)
or "The Old Dead Media" (one I did come up with during the last two year election cycle)
their bias slip has been showing for many years now.

Their latest escapade will be tomorrow night.
The ABC Evening News will be broadcast from the Obama White House.
Not on the lawn outside, but from within the White House!

I half expect the President Of The United States (Or POTUS, in Secret Service parlance)
to wander by the anchor desk, wearing FDR's Cardigan sweater, holding a cup of Joe.
With his two adorable daughters and his new puppie in tow.
Perhaps we will be treated to the pup piddling on the carpet (one can only hope!), and the kids will pull the John-John trick and crawl under the desk, giggling.

His immaculately turned out wife will then come on the set to retrieve her young'uns and dog, dressed to the nines as usual.
"Why, this old thing! It's just something I threw on to knock around the house!
Later on we're going to build a campfire on the East Lawn, roast weenies and have Smores!"

The All American family to be sure.

The Anchor will feign surprise "Why, Mr President, we had no idea you were at home!"

Recipes will no doubt be shared, and we will all be assured in heart warming fashion that everything is AOK on the home front.

Unemployment at 10%, the national budget doubled, and the deficit approaching two trillion dollars already. In just five months.

Oh, and the NutBar sandwich who runs a now nuclear armed North Korea in a particularly feisty mood.
And black leather, helmeted storm troopers on motor cycles rampaging through the streets of Tehran, clubbing and sweeping away people protesting their recent "election".

They may get to those stories.

That depends on how many recipes The First Lady has to share with us.

I'm waiting for them to share the one for Humble Pie.
