Why was she fired?

Because Vilsack and higher ups in the Obama administration totally
screwed
up. They've since apologized more than a few times. But, the right-wing
is
still after her.


It really begs the question, shouldn't the administration be
co-defendants in this slander suit?

Hardly. They didn't start the situation.

If Breitbart says this edited tape came in over the transom and he
never saw the whole speech either, he ends up being in the same boat
as Vilsack and Obama.
Has he ever admitted he edited the tape? I haven't seen it ... but I
also have not really been paying that much attention to it. This was a
media created event and the administration is as guilty as anyone for
over reacting before they had the facts.
It really makes you question how well thought out some of the bigger
things they have done were.

No. He had an agenda.

It's a pretty minor mistake from the admin in the scheme of things and it
really doesn't say much about anything else. Feel free to believe
otherwise.



You're Right. On the larger scheme of things, this seems to be one of the
administration's lesser mistakes.


I'd even agree with that. The admin has made many mistakes, but in
comparison to the previous administration, they're doing brilliantly. Bush
screwed over this country and Obama is trying to fix it. Mistakes happen,
but Bush's "mistakes" were mostly deliberate.
