Bernie Goldberg, Fox commentator and HBO’s "Real Sports" correspondent, got a real kick out of one of the "enchanted" questions posed to President Barack Obama during last night’s press conference. Goldberg, who wrote about the media’s one-sided coverage of Obama in A Slobbering Love Affair: The True (and Pathetic) Story of the Torrid Romance Between Barack Obama and the Mainstream Media, seemed to think the question asked by New York Times reporter Jeff Zeleny — "What enchanted you the most as president?" — not only showed how the media is in love with our president but also that men in journalism are much "softer" these days.

"They’re what a friend of mine calls NPR men," Goldberg said. "They want to know about your feelings, whether you’re enchanted."

Transcript from the press conference: 

Q: Thank you, Mr. President. During these first 100 days, what has surprised you the most about this office, enchanted you the most about serving this in office, humbled you the most and troubled you the most?

PRESIDENT: All right. OK. (Laughter) Surprised. I am surprised compared to where I started, when we first announced for this race, by the number of critical issues that appear to be coming to a head all at the same time. You know, when I first started this race, Iraq was a central issue, but the economy appeared on the surface to still be relatively strong. There were underlying problems that I was seeing with health care for families and our education system and college affordability and so forth, but obviously I didn’t anticipate the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.

And so the typical president I think has two or three big problems; we’ve got seven or eight big problems. And so we’ve had to move very quickly, and I’m very proud of my team for the fact that we’ve been able to keep our commitments to the American people to bring about change while, at the same time, managing a whole host of issues that had come up that weren’t necessarily envisioned a year and a half ago.
Troubled? I’d say less troubled, but sobered by the fact that change in Washington comes slow; that there is still a certain quotient of political posturing and bickering that takes place even when we’re in the middle of really big crises. I would like to think that everybody would say, you know what, let’s take a timeout on some of the political games, focus our attention for at least this year and then we can start running for something next year. And that hasn’t happened as much as I would have liked.

Enchanted? (Laughter) Enchanted. I will tell you that when I meet our servicemen and women — “enchanted” is probably not the word I would use. (Laughter) But I am so profoundly impressed and grateful to them for what they do. They’re really good at their job. They are willing to make extraordinary sacrifices on our behalf. They do so without complaint. They are fiercely loyal to this country. And the more I interact with our servicemen and women, from the top brass down to the lowliest private, I’m just — I’m grateful to them.
