I believe this is political theatre. O’K was recording two people who probably clearly were not phone repair guys claiming to be phone repair guys...else why the call to the Marshall? Looks incredibly stupid...which may mean it’s not.
You have the Obama administration giving 3 different numerical figures about the US employment/unemployment last Sunday on the political talk show circuit. You have Robert Gibbs stating the obvious absurdity that the Massachusettes [sic] Senator-elect Brown's election victory was a win for Obama. Anything coming from the Obama administration should never be taken at face value.
