What I care about is his inexperience and arrogance and the media's focus on him and making him the next President. This story just shows that focus. I mean really---where was the meat in the fist bump story in the first place. Now, that original story is replaced with a more positive one. Who cares? The media needs to dig up everything about Obama's past. Give us a chronology of his political past; tell us about how he managed to disqualify his opponents because he challenged their petitions---or tell us if this story is not true. I don't care where he went to school or if he grew up in a Muslim household; but if you want to put all those rumors to rest, tell us the full story: what school did he attend, what, if any, religion was practiced in his home when he was a child? I don't care about these answers either but the media has a responsibility to vet the candidate and that means telling the story of his childhood, young adult life, political past and leaving no doubt that it is the true story. I would think Obama and all his fans would like the media to do that also. I will not take his word for anything; the one thing we all know for sure is that he is willing to denounce anyone and anything to advance himself and his political future. After all, his white grandmother who, no doubt, paid his tuition in private school (when he returned to this country) was (according to Obama) just a typical white person.

CNN, you really should APOLOGIZE to Barack, on the SUPPOSED FIST BUMP! When you read this morning's two articles on POLLS, and now add to that THIS ERROR IN REPORTING BARACK REFUSED TO GIVE FIST BUMP TO A CHILD. I am really beginning to wonder about cnn.

Someone should throw the PUMA-Einsteins under a bus. Stop the bus. Back up the bus. And drive over the PUMA-Einsteins a second time with the bus.

A report is made without checking things out- It's something to be the first to break the story, but it's something else to always report a factual investigated story.
