An MSNBC host says Chelsea Clinton is being "pimped out" by her mother's campaign.
  • Shuster and Chelsea

    Oh for heaven's sakes!

    -- David Shuster is NOT a Republican. He was one of the most dogged reporters on the trail of Scooter Libby. In this case, he made a mistake by using a slang phrase. It was stupid, but not evil. He is not the agent of a conspiracy of either the left-wing or right-wing variety.

    -- Obama's daughters are young children. They are not making phone calls to the women on "The View," on behalf of their parent. To invoke them makes this already-ridiculously overheated discussion even sillier.

    -- Like it or not, Democrats are getting the distinct impression that Hillary prefers Fox to MSNBC. That's not going to endear her to progressives.

    -- Also, like it or not, the Clintons-as-victims act is getting a little old. We're supposed to be outraged over a moronic comment from an otherwise diligent and excellent reporter?

    REally? Is this really what we're supposed to be worried about?
