Two quick questions for journalists tonight:
1). Will anybody from The Hill circle back to Jason Chaffetz and ask him how he feels about Baby Marco Rubio's take on foreign policy now?
Here's Chaffetz on Saturday: "Anybody's who running for President better darn well understand foreign policy. Marco Rubio showed he was fairly deft in his ability to smoothly answer those questions."
Here's Baby Marco on Sunday: "I still say [the Iraq war] was not a mistake because the President was presented with intelligence that said Iraq had WMD... I don't understand the question you're asking."
2). And will anybody touch base with Kenny Boy Mehlman — openly gay Republican and one of the architects of the homophobic George W. Bush 2004 campaign — and ask him how much money he's bundled for "Jeb!" for 2016, and if he's going to ask for any of it back?
The reason we're asking is that "Jeb!" — no doubt feeling the heat from his recent gaffes and carping from conservatives about maybe skipping Iowa — threw the gay haters a bone yesterday by telling the Christian Broadcasting Network that he didn't support Constitutional protections for marriage equality. "We need to be stalwart supporters of traditional marriage," he bleated.
What a big win for Mehlman (not). But will anyone bother to ask him how he feels about it? Nah. In the lightning-fast world that journalism inhabits these days, reporters suffer from a serious case of Institutional Memory Disorder. Which makes us cats HISS.
