While not as incendiary as the Rev. Wright was for Obama, Mr. Pawlenty will probably see this be a "thing" that has to be dealt with.

Palin: Eliminate All Energy Subsidies
By Scott Conroy
DILLSBURG, Pa. -- Asked Tuesday whether she supports the federal subsidy of ethanol, an always critical issue in the presidential nominating cycle, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin went one step further and called for the elimination of all energy subsidies.
"I think that all of our energy subsidies need to be relooked at today and eliminated," Palin told RCP during a quick stop at a coffee shop in this picturesque town tucked into the south-central Pennsylvania countryside. "And we need to make sure that we're investing and allowing our businesses to invest in reliable energy products right now that aren't going to necessitate subsidies because, bottom line, we can't afford it."
Obama commits horrific act of dis-respect to victims of Joplin disaster...
When will this man learn?
Will he ever learn?
Attending the weekend Memorial service for the victims of the Joplin, Missouri tornado disaster, President Obama was supposed to be providing comfort and support to the local community. It was a time to listen to stories, talk with local leaders about rebuilding and expressing the condolences of a Nation to those who's lives and town were destroyed several days earlier.
By all accounts, his remarks were well received. His visit seemed to be just the right balance of emotions. Sympathy and hope. Empathy and a sense of determination.
I figured something, SOMETHING, would emerge from his visit where he had committed a horrible sin. Offended the locals to the core. Violated some American creed in some way. The media has a habit of producing stories of President Obama's blunders, some real, others imagined.
Well, he didn't disappoint...
What did he do this time?
Brace yourself...
He was chewing gum during the Memorial Service.
Not blowing bubbles, mind you. Not smacking it, just chewing gum.
Thanks to the real sharp folks at Real Clear Politics for their razor sharp eye:
Brilliant journalism.
