Clearly,someone wanted to create controversy, where it didn't really exist. If I had been giving the speech, I don't know if I would have used that particular story, but I'm sure she never thought it would make the news and cost her job. I had something somewhat similar happen to me (twice) and both time it ended up in the media, but I didn't lose my job over it.

The WH doesn't seem to know what they feel about it... Guess they had finger in the proverbial wind and couldn't quite figure out which direction it was blowing. You would have thought they would have learned not to jump on these incidents.

I've been trying to figure out why suddenly all these race issues are coming up. Is this what having an African American President has done for us? Made everyone hyper-sensitive on race again. It's disappointing.
