At the recent White House Correspondents Association dinner President Obama said

'Thomas Jefferson once said,” Obama declared, “that if he had the choice between a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, he would not hesitate to choose the latter. Clearly Thomas Jefferson never had cable news to contend with, but his central point remains: a government without newspapers, a government without a tough and vibrant media of all sorts, is not an option for the United States of America.”

This was very funny yet very thought full. The media has taken Judge Sotomayor's qoute completely out of context.

This is blayent qoute mineing and the media should be ashamed.

To run a single quote OVER AND OVER AND OVER out of context is a slap in the face of all American's intelligence.

If you want to have a objective opinion about this please read the full speech from 2001 here:
