We are the American People.

[Rockholm]

In his attempt to dismiss us, Mr. Rove turned to head toward his table, but as soon as he did so, Sheryl reached out to touch his arm. Karl swung around and spat, "Don't touch me." How hardened and removed from reality must a person be to refuse to be touched by Sheryl Crow? Unphased, Sheryl abruptly responded, "You can't speak to us like that, you work for us." Karl then quipped, "I don't work for you, I work for the American people." To which Sheryl promptly reminded him, "We are the American people."

At that point Mr. Rove apparently decided he had had enough. Like a groundhog fearful of his own shadow, he scurried to his table in an attempt to hibernate for another year from his responsibility to address global warming. Drama aside, you would expect as an American citizen to be able to engage in a civil discussion with a public official. Instead, Mr. Rove was dismissive, condescending and quite frankly a bully.

THANK YOU FOR THE REMINDER. I think this needs to be repeated every friggin' time these repukes blather about what the "American people" want.

I hope someone with talents that I do not possess can create a good bumper sticker for this quote. Beautiful, Sheryl, BEAUTIFUL.

2. Who complains about *Sheryl Crow* touching them?!? Who?!?! Idiot....
