So Obama's about to give his press conference. I'm really hoping that the press conference will stay on topic, which is energy. However, I'm watching MSNBC, and I'm not feeling very hopeful. It amazes me that even after the election we STILL can't get the media to be less tabloidy. Even though Obama has answered EVERY question, they are whining about "transparency." I'd love to see them hound Dick Cheney about transparency as much as they are hounding Obama in this situation where he hasn't even done anything wrong.
So here's a live blog to talk about it!
