Obama will claim that he didn't know about all the fat in the pork bill just passed. He will say its Nancy's fault because she wrote it. Well, Bill Clinton's white house staff gutting the defense bill back in the day. They used thousands of executive orders saying not to order or halt payments which is completely legitimate. (The president is part of the executive branch for those who voted for Obama.)
So, Obama could stand up and cut the fat off the pork bill, but he won't.
He is happy with Nancy handling his package.
He is afraid of the little old white house staff reporters. Pre-selecting the questions? I guess Putin will be holding Obama's package soon as well.
