Joe Klein in the December 8, 2008 TIME magazine page 27 writes a column titled "The Lamest Duck". Klein summarizes some of the highs and lows of the Bush Administration and writes a few choice comments including those below. It is too early to rate the performance of Bush's economic team, but we have more than enough evidence that the...

On the Swampland blog , Time’s Joe Klein is beating the press for asking "inane" questions that suggest that Barack Obama’s words on the campaign trail might still matter, not to mention tick-tock process questions about how Obama and Clinton hammered out this potentially troublesome team-of-rivals arrangement. While Klein suggested these questions don’t elicit news, you can also sense...

Joe Klein laments the quality of questions at Barack Obama’s presser today: Watching the Obama rollout of his national security team from overseas–I’m in Europe, on my way to Afghanistan–I was struck by the inanity of most of the questions from my colleagues.

Now that the press seems to think they have balls and can ask "tough" questions of the President, yes I mean Obama and not Bush , they have to learn the difference between tough and good questions.

PRESS CONFERENCE FOLLIES.... Joe Klein: Watching the Obama rollout of his national security team from overseas I'm in Europe, on my way to Afghanistan I was struck by the inanity of most of the questions from my colleagues. No kidding. Did any of you guys see it? Obama only took four or five questions, and nearly all of them were just plain dumb. (And yes, there is such a thing as a dumb...

As G. would probably agree , it's nice that whatever parasite fed off Joe Klein's cerebral cortex for the first six years of the Bush administration is now, presumably, gone. But the sad fact is that Klein was unforgivably late to the party. Let's not forget that the following exchange with Hugh Hewitt is from April of 2006 : JK: No, no. Hugh, in the past year, I've stood for the following...

By JOE KLEIN TIME We have "only one President at a time," Barack Obama said in his debut press conference as President-elect. Normally, that would be a safe assumption — but we're learning not to assume anything as the charcoal-dreary economic winter approaches. By mid-November, with the financial crisis growing worse by the day, it had become obvious that one President was no longer enough...
