Sometimes the foot just somehow gets in the mouth. It happened to me this morning following an appearance on MSNBC during which I said President Obama had shown up at a House GOP caucus meeting in Baltimore last year “uninvited.”
I think it took about 30 seconds for the left side of the Blogosphere to gleefully unleash a blizzard of posts pointing out that Tapscott got it wrong, Obama was invited. Here’s a post from TPM, which provides the clip, links to the background, and, if I read between the lines accurately, the boisterous laughs.
Now, I eagerly look forward to seeing this kind of post from my many liberal friends when they make their occasional mistakes. Maybe even on TPM, which by the way, I still very much regard as one of the best sites on the left. I often don’t agree with them, but they are always worth reading.
One more thing for the TPM crew: I’m not an Examiner “reporter.” I’m the editorial page editor.
