Fox News’ Ed Henry Responds to Obama’s Jab at Him: He Chose “Not to Engage Mitt Romney” and “Instead Decided to Go After Me” – Video 10/13/11

Here is video of Fox News’ White House Correspondent Ed Henry responding to a thin-skinned President Obama’s jab at him today for asking his reaction to something Mitt Romney said recently. Obama shot back at Henry, “I didn’t know you were the spokesperson for Mitt Romney.”

Henry said it is standard procedure for White House reporters to quote political opponents to get reaction from the President, but that obviously Obama chose “not to engage” Mitt Romney but “instead decided to kind of go after me a little bit.”

This was Obama’s way of trying to intimidate the media into not asking him about what the GOP Candidates are saying. His intimidation tactics work with most of the fawning media, but not with all. Let’s hope an increasing number will be willing to ask him some serious and difficult questions.
