Agriculture Sec Tom Vilsack asks Chelsea Clinton not to marry

[KurtNYC]

According to the wedding planners that ABC reached out to, Tom Vilsack, Secretary of Agriculture and self-appointed media coordinator, called Chelsea Clinton last night. He asked her to cancel the 400-person wedding and "get married at the Courthouse" to avoid a barrage of negative coverage by Fox News. Vilsack was very concerned that Beck, O'Reilly and the others would 'have a field day' and, in the wake of his Sherrod charades, Vilsack doesn't think he can handle that.

Vilsack defended his actions saying,"The controversy surrounding her wedding would create situations where her decisions, rightly or wrongly, would be called into question making it difficult for her to have a wedding."

How many times will we form a circular firing squad with ammunition being fed to us by the Right?

This time the source is ABC, not Breitbart or Fox but the goal is the same: to separate Democratic candidates from their base. They want Dems to get disgusted and stay home in November. Some accept their crap as fact and run with it. And when we do that we are helping their agenda.

They will keep doing it as long as it works. So can we stop stabbing the Clintons in the back now?
