The First Press Conference Question

Here's the first question that ought to be asked at Obama's first presidential press conference but won't:

"Mr. President, when Mr. Biden was asked difficult questions in two radio interviews, and then three newspapers endorsed Sen. McCain, your campaign treated these media outlets as something akin to persona non grata. Should the Washington Press Corps continue its practice in the Bush presidency of asking the toughest possible questions to you, or should we be fearful to do so?"

Instead, we should expect the big questions like, "Was it difficult for you and Mrs. Obama to agree on your puppy's name?"
