As he was holding him in his arms, the kid reached out, grabbed the microphone and SCREAMED into it. The parent pulled him back, the kid giggled with glee, the parent told him to stop, and then let the kid go. Again, the kid pulled himself down to microphone level and SCREAMED again. Some parents are just dumb. Which kind of reminds me of this one time in testimony meeting where some guy brought his kid up to bear his testimony.

These people have plenty of other forums where they are welcome and encouraged to say "Beyonce got robbed," "I didn't touch the line," or "Obama lies." Even though none of them whined "It's not fair!" they were acting like a bunch of egocentric three year olds. I so agree with all you said.

If you watch the video, you'll notice that Serena may not have even touched the line with her foot. Kanye probably wasn't the only one that thought Beyonce's video was better (and that the MTV award shouldn't go to a country singer). AND Joe obviously disagrees with Obamacare. BUT that is NOT the point. The point is that there is a time and a place and a manner for voicing. And all 3 got it way wrong!!!

Mr. Obama told at least 3 outright lies and I'm glad somebody called him on that one. The interesting thing is that Joe Wilson’s outburst was the only truth spoken that night.
