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?
