OH HO: Politico reports that Obama's chief strategy henchman David Axelrod had a hush-hush meeting with Fox News Slug King Roger Ailes when Obama was in NYC two weeks ago. The explosive, secret conversation, we allege, went like this:

AXELROD: How about you guys give slightly less credence and airtime to America's most vitriolic anti-Obama wingnuts? In exchange, we'll offer Fox News better access to Obama.
AILES: Okay.
(Awkward pause).
AILES: Onion ring?
AXELROD: No, but please, take your time and finish. I...have to go.

More or less.
