Classless Boors, Indeed
Think Progres - Rep. Jim Moran: Bush Was Warned To Be ‘Extra Sensitive’ About Webb’s Son
But according to Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA), Bush was told that Webb’s son had a recent brush with death in Iraq and was warned to be “extra sensitive� when talking to the Sen.-elect. ThinkProgress yesterday spoke with Moran’s office and confirmed the congressman’s statement, first reported by hcc in VA:Not only did Bush know about it, he was specifically briefed on the incident before meeting with Webb, and was cautioned to be extra sensitive in speaking with Webb about his son.After such a briefing, Bush perhaps shouldn’t have been so surprised about Webb’s unwillingness to chit-chat about his son.
I'm not sure who that really qualifies as demonstrating less class, Bush for his immature little rant at Webb, or the bloggers who took the Will/O'Reilly/NRO talking points at face value. Some people really need to get a grip before they start running with the talking points.
