And Obama refuses to visit NYC after the hurricane.

Pehaps I should have been a little more precise. Do you have any video or print interviews or press conferences where the president has been asked directly about his academic records. I did not mean another trumped up trump video or some op/ed or article where the question is asked in a general sense. I want to know if anyone has actually confronted the president with this question?

Hard to say. The Celebrity Apprentice hasn't had a press conference in months and, when he does deign to meet the semi-serious media, he drags the answer on for 45 minutes. Is it likely The View, Leno or Letterman will ask this dull witted blowhard a serious question?

In other words, you can't find a single instance of the question being directly asked to Obama.

I thought so.

Of what question? About his birth certificate?

"Direct" wasn't mentioned in the earlier post.

No he just hasn't visited the danger zones. He went for a few hours, said a few presidential like words, looked serious, posed for photo ops, and left.

The longer this goes on the more I dislike romney... ..Hes refusing to answer because hes a stone cold phony.


Mitt Romney refused to answer reporters' questions about how he would handle the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), after a Tuesday "storm relief" event in Ohio for Hurricane Sandy.
From the Romney pool report:

TV pool asked Romney at least five times whether he would eliminate FEMA as president/what he would do with FEMA. He ignored the qs but they are audible on cam. The music stopped at points and the qs would have been audible to him.​
A follow-up report noted the specific questions Romney ignored, as he was collecting hurricane supplies following his event:
"Gov are you going to eliminate FEMA?" a print pooler shouted, receiving no response. Wires reporters asked more questions about FEMA that were ignored.
Romney kept coming over near pool to pick up more water. He ignored these questions:
"Gov are you going to see some storm damage?"
"Gov has [New Jersey Gov.] Chris Christie invited you to come survey storm damage?"
"Gov you've been asked 14 times, why are you refusing to answer the question?"

How can he talk about Fema without looking like an idiot after what he had said in the republican primary debates.
