As well as their status as "real Americans."

She once described Al Gore as "lactating" in his excitement over some issue or other, and she fabricated a tale about John Kerry addressing a group of racing fans by saying "who amongst us doesn't love NASCAR?" to play upon his out-of-touch-ness. I don't recall a similar fabrication about Romney, for instance.

She's simply not as witty as she thinks she is, and her journalism is subpar at best. The sooner she gets out of the game, the better.
