Pigs are flying! Andrea Mitchell is defending Barack Obama on MSNBC (5:25 ET) re:
- His visiting wounded troops in the Green Zone
- That he was shooting hoops with the troops
- That footage the McCain ad used was shot by DOD camera people
And to top it off, she thought the publication of the Wailing Wall note was shabby.
Andrea refuted the fellows so well with the facts as she saw them having been there, that they all just shut up. Howard Fineman of Newsweek had started on a roll about Barack Obama having an arrogance problem, that he "get's his back up when he's challenged," that he has a "hubris" issue ... When on comes Andrea, and she was having none of the criticism about Barack Obama. The boys on air were left pretty much speechless with Mr. Fineman left with more of final mutter to the effect of -- well, I still think he's arrogant -- like a little kid muttering under his breath.
I believe in MSM taking a stand for the truth and reporting it, so I'm going to sent a note of thanks to Andrea.
PS Stay tuned to the new narrative of "being arrogant" to continue growing.
