CBS hides Obama’s "slugs" remark
The lamestream media is already blatantly carrying water for Obama’s 2012 reelection.
Big Government has details that CBS heavily edited another hot mic comment that could damage the president’s standing with federal workers.
Last weekend, His Presidency Barack Obama was captured making potentially offensive comments to a group of big money donors who had paid large sums of money for special access to His Presidency.
We observed that CBS only released “selectively edited” moments from the raw tape. We know how much the mainstream media values complete and full disclosure of recordings of this nature, so we found it curious, to say the least, that there was not one drop of intellectual curiosity from these guardians of media purity regarding the content of the full recording.
CBS News correspondent Mark Knoller has the specifics on what Obama said to his donors:
“What’s striking when you enter into the federal government is how generally smart and dedicated people are.” He did opine that some employees “are slugs and not trying to do their job. But that’s true of any large institution.”
Knoller has tried repeatedly (via Twitter) to get the full recording, but CBS is refusing to release it.
@markknoller Why haven’t you released all of the audio of President Obama’s “donor meeting”? If you have please link?
@markknoller This is my third request. Why will you not release the full audio of Obama’s donor conversation?
@yesbuthowever My editors decided against it.
If reporters recorded Dear Leader referring to a group of Americans as “slugs,” that is news and we deserve to hear it. Geez, just release the full audio of Obama’s donor conversation and let us judge it for ourselves in context. You can be certain if George W. Bush had been taped derisively insulting federal workers, this story would lead 24/7 for the next several days, and it would be selectively edited so that only that remark made it into the sound bite.

UPDATE: When I think of federal employees who are slugs and trying not to do their jobs, I immediately think of those fleebagger Democrats.
