"KARL: I wanted to go back to exactly what the president said. He said you can bypass the website and apply by phone or in-person, and that it can be done in 25 minutes. But these memos say that at the end of the day, we are all stuck in the same queue, because they all have to go through the same portal. "
"CARNEY: Jon, I get it, but the person who calls isn’t the one who continues to wait after the application is filled, right?"
Carney said this in a mocking style as he had explained it many times already and had shown the patience of Job. Much to my surprise, many in the media sympathized with Karl and criticized Carney for treating Karl as sort of a child. Frankly Karl deserved it and more. I think that Carney should have cut him off long before the telling comment. Incredibly even after this, Karl kept on refusing to understand. He seemed bound and determined to land some sort of criticism of the president on this 25 min. topic. Certainly to me and I think everyone there is a huge difference between me having to wait 25 min. on the phone and someone else having to do it for me. So for me it is all much ado about nothing. It seems as if the so-called liberal press is bending far over backward to find criticism with the president.
