Yeah, it seems incredibly inappropriate. Members of Congress asking for autographs? So bizarre....

As for Obama's speech; it was ok I guess. I think it's tough for him to say he's against bigger government what with the stimulus packages and the Biden-led task force, but I understand that he needed to say something like that as an answer to those of us who are anti-big government.

About the sheriff and the boats? That's pretty ballsy if it is a lie.

LOL, no, sorry, that's a very generous reporting of the "clarification". It was a totally misleading, made-up representation of his place and role in the intial rescue efforts. And a really, really stupid move for him and his team. Who the crap is advising the Republicans these days? For the love of god!
