i know that it was Bush... i don't know which one in particular... i hope this helps somehow

WRONG....BUSH HAD 4-9 PER YEAR, BUT THE WINNER OF THIS AWARD IS THE COWARD OBAMMA

ITS BEEN ALMOST 1 YEAR NOW AND HE REFUSES TO TAKE ON QUESTIONS.

That's incorrect:

According to the Washington Times:

"Mr. Obama tops his predecessor in total output. He has given 43 press conferences of various degrees, six of which were solo White House sessions. During the same period, Mr. Bush gave 24 press conferences, of which four were formal, solo White House sessions. "
