AP Diva Glen Johnson Becomes the Story at Romney Campaign Stop @ 05:24 pm


Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney attempted to stump in a Palmetto State Staples before a small group of locals and a wad of reporters. As he spoke, he was repeatedly interrupted by AP reporter Glen Johnson, who sat belaptopped on the floor fully taking up the amount of space required by natural law. CBS news video shows the ill-tempered and disrespectful reporter in his full glory as he backtalks Romney, snarls at Romney's press liason, and finally a lets a spectator who upbraids him know she should talk to the hand. It's a perfect trifecta of petulant disdain.

Mary Katherine Ham has her take om the story, as well as the video at her blog. Miss Ham includes the entertaining and refreshing remarks made by the Carolina lady Johnson waved off which the video cuts off at the end:
"I'm not with the campaign. I'm just standing by, but I think you're rude and ugly".
UPDATE: Video as posted on YouTube is complete, with final comment. (Audio was out of sync at some points).

Another News Joust: Bill Clinton on the Attack @ 07:51 pm


Former President Bill Clinton seen in a video grab from an ABC video.
Mr.Clinton became irate and accusatory when questioned about the unsuccessful attempt by groups including the teachers' union (that backs Hillary Clinton) to disallow work place caucusing in Las Vegas.
Not allowing Casino workers on the night shift to caucus at work might have favored his wife by disenfranchising those voters.
(Many casino workers belong to the culinary union that has endorsed Barack Obama).
Mr. Clinton's argument as stated on the video is both mindboggling and untenable.
