Allen’s Stalker
140 words.
I hate to complain when awkward situations come up for George Allen, but this security incident has all the markings of a setup. I mean, a left-wing blogger, inspired by Michael Moore’s stalker movie Roger and Me, tries to ask Allen an awkward question (by shouting at him) right in front of the press? Come on. You don’t have to read much of the guy’s blog to know he was obviously trying to bait Allen into looking bad in front of the cameras. That ain’t democracy folks.
(Though I guess one could argue that, since most politicians in today’s Amusing Ourselves To Death society rise and fall on the content of radio and television sound bites, maybe that is democracy.)
