Did anyone catch Tweety correcting Andrea Mitchell last night?

[XNASA]

I'm paraphrasing here.

AM: "And today the President picked up a union endorsement from the Firefighters. That gotta help in his bid for re-election."

CM: "Doesn't mean much. There's only one union that's a got a Republican majority and you know who that is."

AM: "The Teamsters?"

CM: "No, no, no. It's the Firefighters, of course."

Guess you don't have to be a genius to be married to Alan Greenspan. Guess you don't even have to all that much on the ball.

1. On balance, Mitchell wasn't too bad...

...following most of the speeches, Tweety went into drool mode, along with Watts.

Mitchell passed out a few reality checks.

2. Means even less than Tweety said: It was just one Local in Queens

The national firefighters union endorsed Kerry/Edwards.

6. I missed that point. I forgot the the IAFF had endorsed Kerry.

So one of them was wrong and the other disingenuous.

Way to go MSNBC.

3. While on the subject of Hardball...

Does anyone know if there is a link to video of the Ingraham-Gergen dustup yesterday?

(I didn't see it yesterday as I was watching the Red Sox punk my Angels - AGAIN :( )

I've been browsing the Hardball page and can't seem to find it.

4. National Firefighters union endorsed Kerry, BTW

Our idiot press doesn't know much about unions.

5. Too bad he missed the main point that this is one tiny local

Kerry is the candidate who actually has the overwhelming majority of firefighters endorsing him.
