Foolish Detroit News Lady Can't Take Barack Obama's Compliment
This just in via Wonkette: Hope-filled handsome man Barack Obama strolled through a Chrysler stamping plant in Detroit today, and a local girl reporter had the total balls to ask him what he was going to do to save autoworkers' jobs. (Seems like a weird time to ask such a question, no? Maybe she was on the rag.)
As for Obama's reply, well, we'll go with the phrase that's been coined: SweetieGate.
Listen, sweetie, when Barack Obama calls you sweetie, you just hush your pretty mouth and smile. Do you want Change, or do you not?
(For extra credit, watch the full WXYZ news clip here. Definitely on the rag!)

Okay, here's an original idea: The Detroit auto companies should stop fighting CAFE standards and building bigger, less efficient cars and trucks. Maybe Detroit auto companies should start making smaller, reliable cars that get good mileage. You know, the kind of cars that people want to buy when gas costs over $3.70 a gallon.
That might do a lot to bolster bottom lines and encourage detroit auto companies to retain their workers and even hire new ones. Or are only Toyota and Honda capable of such feats of wizardry.
I got the video twice with no problem. Try it again.
Sweetie–very cute. And who's idea was it that this lunk-head is good-looking, anyway?
Ugh, another reason not to vote for him. Democrats have become such a disgrace.
