I haven\u2019t heard this. I\u2019m told it\u2019s embarrassing. The White House press briefing just, well, started and ended, I guess. It may still be going on. (interruption) It\u2019s over? (interruption) Okay, so it was basically a functional thing today, ceremonial. It was not really of any substance, the final official White House press briefing of the Obama Regime. Now, his press secretary\u2019s a guy named Josh Earnest. So Earnest &#8212; and this is traditional, by the way.<\/p>\n<p>An outgoing president always visits the pressroom and the press secretary during the final briefing and tells everybody what a great guy the press secretary has been, and Obama followed through on the tradition. And it just happened. And Cookie sent me a sound bite of it, and she said that it is embarrassing what happens when Obama enters the room. It is the 22nd sound bite. Let\u2019s see&#8230; I know what she says is embarrassing about it. I haven\u2019t heard it. I want to see if what happened is actually detectable in this sound bite. So, if you would, please, in three &#8230; two &#8230; one &#8230; Hit it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wHAqARE3L04\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>JOSH EARNEST: Let me say for the, uh &#8212; the last time standing up here, Josh, you want to get us started with questions?<\/p>\n<p>JOSH LEDERMAN: Sure. Thanks, Josh.<\/p>\n<p>PHOTOGRAPHERS: (wild camera clicks)<\/p>\n<p>PRESS CORPS: Ohhhh! Oooo! Ahhh! (gasps) (applause)<\/p>\n<p>BARACK OBAMA: I uhhhh&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>PRESS CORPS: (applause)<\/p>\n<p>BARACK OBAMA: I &#8212; I am&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>PRESS CORPS: (applause)<\/p>\n<p>BARACK OBAMA: I\u2019m not interrupting because he was saying nice things about you guys.<\/p>\n<p>PRESS CORPS: (snickering)<\/p>\n<p>BARACK OBAMA: Uh, because I largely concur.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. So what happened was Earnest is doing the last briefing and Obama sneaks in there and the press&#8230; I guess if you see this, it\u2019s even more impactful because they start (gasping). &#8220;Ho! Ho-ho-ho! Hooooo!&#8221; It\u2019s like the king has deigned to visit the plebes! &#8220;Ah, ah, ah! Be still my beating heart! Ah, ah!&#8221; It\u2019s like the women in the press corps when Clinton would enter the room. &#8220;Please choose me! Please.&#8221; And then they started applauding and so forth. It\u2019s embarrassing to the media, but they don\u2019t care anymore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Cookie just sent me a sound bite. I haven&#039;t heard this.
