60 Minutes clips out part of Obama Interview Where he says His Campaign Ads Included Mistakes
Weekly Standard
Tonight, CBS aired a 60 Minutes interview with President Obama. But curiously enough, the news magazine show did not air a clip of Obama admitting to interviewer Steve Kroft that some of his campaign ads contain mistakes and that some even “go overboard.”
CBS describes the clip this way: “President Obama says some of his campaign ads might ‘go overboard’ or contain mistakes, but most of them simply highlight the differences between him and Gov. Romney.”
“Look, the fact-checkers have had problems with the ads on both sides,” Kroft says to Obama in the unaired clip, “and say they’ve been misleading and in some cases just not true. Does that disturb you? I mean, some of them are your ads.”
Obama responds: “Do we see sometimes us going overboard in our campaign, are there mistakes that are made, areas where there is no doubt somebody could dispute how we are presenting things? You know, that happens in politics.”
Kroft responds: “Aren’t the American entitled to the truth? Or a better version of it?”

Look, Sixty Minutes is nothing more than another campaign stop for Obama. And Steve Kroft has ALWAYS had a big man crush on Barack. Does anything more really need to be said?

Good thing it was ONLY the ‘campaign’ that got fouled up.
I’d HATE for him to make ANY mistakes while running the country…

Kroft beleieves in “truth, or a better version of it?”
I wasn’t aware that ‘truth’ came in different ‘versions.’
