I'm quite aware of the title of the thread, I'm also quite aware that there's varying levels of staging an event, and anybody who thinks it was just some accident that those two people were in the same area of the audience and introduced is just being silly. I'm not saying they were given a countdown to hug time, which might be what Chrissy is trying to imply, but I understand TV and politics well enough to know that somebody got an attaboy when the hug happened. I'd say it was a little less staged than most of the fights on Springer, but still staged.
He didn't "try to imply" it, that is exactly what he said. He and Ron P. are saying the Iraqi woman and the Marine mother were not acting out of a genuine basis that our action in Iraq was right and good. He is saying they put on a show.
