MSNBC anchor Alex Witt who gave us that gem of What? when she was informed that volcanic eruptions can last for years recently defended the Obama administration against charges by NBC space travel reporter Jay Barbree that Obama broke his promise to the space program about jobs.
From Eyeblast.tv
The transcript of the exchange thanks to I Hate the Media
Barbree: But I’m a little disturbed right now, Alex. I just found out some very disturbing news. The President came down here in his campaign and told these 15,000 workers here at the Space Center that if they would vote for him, that he would protect their jobs. 9,000 of them are about to lose their job. He is speaking before 200, extra hundred people here today only. It’s invitation only. He has not invited a single space worker from this space port to attend. It’s only academics and other high officials from outside of the country. Not one of them is invited to hear the President of the United States, on their own space port, speak today. Back to you Alex.
Witt: Alright Jay I can understand why that would certainly get you a bit upset. I will say, on behalf of the Obama administration, they contend that 2500 new jobs will be created, even more, they say, than the 2012 Constellation would have created, that program. So I know all this remains to be seen, but understandably we get why you’re upset, right now. Along with many others down there. Let’s see if the President clears that up later today. Jay thanks so much.
Someone obviously forgot to tell Barbree that he wouldn’t be speaking with a network anchor but a flack for the Obama administration posing as an anchor.
Good for Obama, bad for objective reporting.

To Mary # 1,,,I am sorry that your husband is out of work. The ONLY way I can think to help is to ask you to tell every one that you know to get an honest,viable candidate to run on PRIMARY DAY.You
might just win the way the incumbents in NY win.They win on primary day & the opposition runs
NO ONE WORTH VOTING FOR on Election Day,,& guess what??They win AGAIN,,& WE LOSE!! So,,Primary Day
FIRST,,,then Election day.
Remember,NOT RACIST,NOT VIOLENT,just NOT SILENT !!
A “Liberal” bud who is suffering from Voters remorse & Left-wing TV Cranial-Rectumitis,said that he is getting fed up with the Peacock network
More Stupid No Bama Crap,Czarist No Bama Crap & of course,,No Bama Criticism.
I think the Tea Party just got a new recruit.
“on behalf of the Obama administration, they contend that 2500 new jobs will be created! did she mean saved or created duh!! Isn’t that Chris Matthews job to make sure Obama doesn’t screw up

It’s a competitive game out there for those who will be working for the “official” propaganda outlet.
Remember, there was only one TASS, one Pravda.
What can you expect from someone who works at the network for idiots and morans????
I live in the area where this is going to take place. Neither me or my husband work at the space center—-and thanks to BoBo—my husband has been out of work for a year—with no end in sight.
The folks that work there come from all over central Florida and possibly north and south Florida. There is going to be a profound affect here—
BoBo leaves us without the ability to get a man into space—BUT—-no problem—Russia and China will be able to do that. Rather than try to keep mthe jobs alive and well—“His Highness” pay the Russians and leave us to their mercy—
Thus:
“We have an agreement until 2012 that Russia will be responsible for this,” says Anatoly Perminov, head of the Russian space agency, about ferrying astronauts from other countries into low-Earth orbit. “But after that? Excuse me, but the prices should be absolutely different then!”
