This is just so, so bad, awful -- first Joe the Plumber has to be destroyed because he dared allow 0bama approach him as he was outside in front of his house playing with his children, 0bama engaged him, not the other way around. Now we have Katy the Mom, exercising her First Amendment right, addressing her elected representative to make her views on policy issue known at a public forum, she is hit with *the works* and treated extremely unprofessionally, to put it mildly, but this political hack-turned media head.
Anyone who tries to pull the "He wasn't president when he said it" line has ZERO credibility (no pun intended), since they are constantly calling Bill Clinton president, he is not. They don't care for proper and accurate, they don't get to claim that because this woman referred to the sitting president correctly when she put it, "I heard the president say ...." that he didn't say it -- he most certainly did, irrelevant that he had not been elected to the office she uses respectfully in reference now.
As for O'Donnell, yet one more Moynihan castoff, I'll never forget the story of how when he was schtupping Kathryn Harrold, she thought it great fun to see him sitting behind Moynihan in a Senate hearing, call his beeper to watch him on CSPAN walk off to a phone, he had to tell her not to do it any more.
Says a great deal about how seriously actors take the business of our government.
Sorry, the usual word spelled properly but not what I wished to use boo boo — but should be by at the end of my first paragraph.
