If a supremely prominent Republican who was John McCain's chief surrogate had gotten into an angry confrontation at a campaign event, do you think the broadcast networks would have promptly let us know his interlocutor was African-American?
I do. But none of the broadcast network's morning news shows, at least during this morning's crucial first half-hour, disclosed the African-American identity of the man with whom Bill Clinton got into just such an argument yesterday in Ohio.
Not a word of any incident whatsoever at GMA or the Early Show, at least during the first half-hour. Today did mention that Clinton "showed his temper . . . after an Obama supporter tried to disrupt his speech in Canton," but nothing about the man's identity.

Nets covering for Clinton ping to Today show list.
How do you not know or remember whether a former president hit you in the face or not?
I think Bill Clinton needs to “apologize to Jesse Jackson” (South Park reference).
Clinton has become unhinged as he sees his third and fourth terms slipping away.
Your web site is great and thanks for posting.
As long as he's losing his temper.... I'm happy.
Thanks, andyandval. Please let me know if you’d like to be added to my ping list here!
If I hit you you'd know it...Bubba is used to hitting women so the guy's uncertainity is understandable.
It took a series of subpoenas, a blue dress and a DNA test to prove Bill hit Monica....
This still might get interesting.
what gives? Later reports say the Clinton campaign reported it as a confrontation with a Pro-Life activist, that makes it OK. This campaign is revealing every fault line in the culture. Really weird.

There were two incidents at separate speeches.
First with Holeman, later with pro-lifers at another speech.
Well said! That is a very discerning remark!!
Yes. Please add me to the list. Thanks.
Abortion is THE issue - some God v Devil stuff here, bigtime.
I didn’t used to think so, but in examining the motivating factors of “liberals”, I can see why this is THE penultimate issue.
“Liberalism” centers around making the innocent pay for the consequences of the guilty’s behavioral choices. There is an underlying belief to this, but see “Regurgitating the Apple” for more info.
What could be more of an example of this than abortion?
The MOST innocent human being (God’s creation in His own image) being made to pay for, WITH ITS VERY LIFE, the frivolous sexual behavioral indulgences of others.
John McCain 2008!
With pleasure! By the way, I note we’re both NYers. I live in Ithaca.
Bubba is a lawterly wimp who has underlings do his dirty work.
He may have touched the man, but the coward who feared Osama, certainly isn’t going to go after Obama
