...don't want the fucking walking asswipe to be within sniffing distance of reporters and have banned the press from the rope line fearing, fearing I tell you, "an unscripted moment."
Didn't we just fucking say good fucking riddance to an imperial Presidency, oh, I don't know, about four fucking years ago.
Tell you what boy fucking blunder, take your 230,000,000 and go pound it up your royal ass.
You are an heir to Two Shoes McClown, Shooter and the Wasilla Fuckwit, go fuck yourself and the fucking car elevator you rode in on, shitstain.
Romney Camp Tries to Limit Reporters Access, and Rope Line Ruckus Erupts

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. The Romney campaign is known for its hyper-disciplined approach to the news media. Question-and-answer sessions with reporters are rare. Aides avoid on-the-record briefings. And the candidates latest outreach to voters, a series of casual meetings with middle-class Americans, is shielded from public view.
But on Wednesday, the campaign took that curtain-drawing restrictiveness to a new level, leading to a brief kerfuffle with reporters and later, an apologetic clarification.
After Mitt Romneys speech here, campaign aides told members of the traveling press corps that they could not approach either the audience or the rope line where Mr. Romney shakes voters hands and casually speaks with them.
Access to such interactions has long been a zealously protected staple of presidential campaign reporting that allows reporters to capture unscripted moments and pose questions to candidates (who typically ignore or pretend not to hear them).
Mr. Romney, however, has at times proven a chatty and news-making figure on the rope lines, to his aides frustration. It was there, for example, that Mr. Romney told reporters that even Jimmy Carter would have given that order to kill Osama bin Laden. And it was where he reacted to Rush Limbaughs comments that a Georgetown University student was a slut, saying that he would have chosen different language, but declining to condemn it.

They think the media made a fool of Palin when they can't see she's a dipshit to begin with. The Reukes don't really want to see Rmoney. They are just willing to close their eyes and vote for him, as long as he has an R behind his name. "You Rang"
