kicked.. now if we can just get some more RECS!

This is what I sent..

Dear Deborah Turness,

Chuck Todd was horrible on his debut MTP show and not very bright. And, so full of himself.. telling the President how to speak.. like he knows anything.

The President mentioned Syria 4 times and the Todd came up with the following..

"You’ve not said the word, “Syria,” so far in our conversation. Obviously, if you’re going to defeat ISIS, you have used very much stronger language. It’s gone through the week during your trip to Wales. You got to go to Syria in some form or another."

Notice that President Obama's last mention of Syria came two sentences before Todd made his fatuous statement.

If one of the traits of a good interviewer is listening to the answers given by the subject, Chuck Todd fails miserably.

Sincerely, Cha
XOXOXOXO
