First and foremost, if the President wants to take a town hall moment to illustrate how private health plans will co-exist nicely with the "public option", why on Earth would he use the Post Office as a corollary? He's right, the USPS is "the one with all the problems", while Fedex and UPS are sailing along nicely. Does this mean we want to create a new Post Office?
Secondly, what got into Hillary to assuage Nigeria about their problems by pointing out that we have our own? And (natch), she pointed out the worst of them: the Supreme Court "selecting" a President in 2000, in part because the Florida voters strayed from either intelligence or the law (Hillary wasn't clear) in using the ballot box to elect the President's Brother as Governor. Oh, wait, when he was elected Governor, George was considering running for the White House. A clear conflict of interest. I'm surprised the Florida Supreme Court, then loaded to the gills by Lawton Chiles, didn't see enough there to allow impeachment hearings to start.
Third, all you whiners out there who are driven up the wall by every utterance of the former Governor of Alaska will probably want to enter into the mystery search for the ghostwriter of her Facebook account. Because skimming through even a few paragraphs will convince all of you that it could never have been written by the neo-Barbie simpleton.
I'm sure they will take up the issue in a future "30 Rock" episode.
