“We essentially told the White House that we are not willing to be ‘pimped,’” the blog said.

So your idea of a leftist turning on itself is a blog that describes itself as capitalist?
It certainly puts a whole new perspective on your views, normally you call the center right socialists , but now you are at the stage where the bourgoisie have miraculosly become the proletariat just because you don't think.

So how do we tell who is who?

The new one gets paid to do nothing much while the old one now gets paid to simply speak.

Really, can you name an example?

Damn thats a hard one, I mean how on earth can you find an example of the white house liason office doing an "informal" briefing for cubans perhaps.

Yes. It is one of those things that is hard to track down, and I didn't think I would find it, but here is one with George H. W. Bush having luncheon exclusively with black journalists.

Did august make some silly posts again where he simply shows he doesn't think?

Wow Marlin Fitzwater.. nearly forgot about him.

But a 'luncheon' with 'black journalist' to discuss issues is not exactly what was going on here.

Me too. Talk about a blast from the past.

I'm sure that there was no attempt at that luncheon to sway any opinion, right? Granted that the method was far more subtle, but the intention was the same. The primary difference is that the Obama Administration is far more amateur in their approach to relations with these groups. The result is that you'll see this blow up on them more often.

Actually from the accompanying article it was mainly to apologize the "hullabaloo" caused by remarks made by the Assistant Secretary of Education. If fact the intention behind that meeting sounds like the total opposite of what Obama tried to do here, but, point taken.

I was going to just say "Who?", but I thought that would be too obvious.
