Obama isn't relying on blogs to set policy

[ProSense]

NYT via ThinkProgress:

UPDATE In an interview with the New York Times, Obama said blogs aren't a reliable source of information about the economic crisis:

Mr. Obama rode to the White House partly on his savvy use of new media, and he has a staff-written blog on his presidential Web site. Even so, he said he did not find blogs a reliable source of objective information, citing the economy as one example.

“Part of the reason we don’t spend a lot of time looking at blogs,” he said, “is because if you haven’t looked at it very carefully, then you may be under the impression that somehow there’s a clean answer one way or another — well, you just nationalize all the banks, or you just leave them alone and they’ll be fine.”

1. He's going to be listening to economists? Pfft. Bloggers know everything. Just ask 'em.

2. It takes like a nano second to conclude that Bloggers, for the most part,

don't know what the fuck they are talking about.
Hell, I came to the same conclusion real quick! :rofl:
