Flip Floppin’ with the Flag

You know it’s a slow news day when TIME Magazine devotes an entire article to whether or not Obama is wearing a flag pin on the lapel of his suit. I kid you not.

What’s next - how often the dude changes his underwear (and what that says about his patriotism)? Seriously - this is all they have to nit-pick the man about? Why not dredge up Reverend Wright, I’m sure he’s media lonely.

*shakes head*

Hey TIME - sometimes I wear a watch, and sometimes I don’t. Sometimes I pull my hair back in a ponytail, and sometimes I don’t. Isn’t that news-worthy enough?

Why don’t you try reporting on any number of ACTUAL new stories occurring today. I guess they didn’t want to have to run this lovely piece of news coverage: Edwards endorses Obama.

Bam.

Much Love, Mindy C
