Erin Burnett is an idiot [View all]

she said the NRA ad is o.k. because politicians "use" their kids all the time.
Her examples were:
Video of Clintons holding Chelsea's hand walking to the helicopter after the Lewinsky affair. (WTF?!)
Photo of President on the couch with his girls watching Michelle speak at the convention.

She actually compared these to the NRA's repulsive ad.
CNN seems to think if they spray her with enough phoney FeBreeze we won't smell the stench of her RW core. I can't stand her.
