It’s come to this: Blaming the media:

Q Thank you, Mr. President, for coming to Portsmouth. My name is Michael Layon (ph). I’m from Derry, New Hampshire, District 1 in the congressional district. I’m one of the people that turned myself in on the White House Web page the other day for being a skeptic of this bill. I’m proud to have done so.
THE PRESIDENT: Before you ask this question, just because you referred to it, can I just say this is another example of how the media ends up just completing distorting what’s taken place. What we’ve said is that if somebody has — if you get an e-mail from somebody that says, for example, “Obamacare is creating a death panel,” forward us the e-mail and we will answer the question that’s raised in the e-mail. Suddenly, on some of these news outlets, this is being portrayed as “Obama collecting an enemies list.” (Laughter.) Now, come on, guys. You know, here I am trying to be responsive to questions that are being raised out there –
Q And appreciate it. (Applause.)
THE PRESIDENT: And I just want to be clear that all we’re trying to do is answer questions. All right, go ahead.
