38. As I said, I thought it looked like something thrown together at the last minute.

They rehearse this stuff, and they didn't act like they had ever seen it. They have been very good hosts for this show, and that was one of the very few times I have seen them look that awkward.

In addition, if they had said something about it, that would have created a firestorm that would have engulfed them, the CMA and all those supporting the ACA.

The other thing about this that I find mystifying is the uproar among some about what was said. They made a joke about how slow the site was. Gawd and everybody had something to say about that issue. Some of those comments were very nasty. This was a mild shot.

Why are they being singled out for a huge wave of negativity when late night comics, to name one source, made a much bigger deal about the site and not just about how slow it was?
