At first, I thought perhaps he told his photo guys to release his skeet pics, to dick slap Fox...since he came out of the gates swinging at them in his 2nd term...but there's no real dick slap follow up. No, "Fuck you. What was that about needing a picture there dick face?" No little "eat my ass" shots. I think he's doing what he's been doing since he took office...he's kowtowing to these knuckle draggers because he's STILL the appease guy. It's who he is. He's the mediator.
Look at Carney's face when he was asked the question. Obama knows full well what he's doing. He's fucking with FOX.
He's sitting with his advisors and saying "Look, we'll never please them. Let's just throw shit out there and piss them off. Then America will see how fucking nuts they are."
