Cline, Kreskin & Kanye West
Let's start off with a couple of programming notes for you. On Thursday morning's show, mentalist The Amazing Kreskin will be joining me. 
The Amazing One will be appearing on Mike Huckabee's show this weekend on the Fox News Network and also at Wolftrap on Friday, October 9. By the way, speaking of Mike Huckabee, I love the guy and love his politics, and would love to see him as President of the United States, although I admit, it might be slightly disturbing to have a President whose name sounds like a pie.
McGruff is 29 today.
Finally, I don't know why this hasn't gotten more media attention. Well, actually I do, and so do you. A reporter for ABC, Terry Moran set the Twitter world all aflutter when he wrote the following:
"President Obama just called Kanye West a "jackass" for his outburst at VMSs when Taylor Swift won. Now that's presidential".
An ABC spokesperson immediately responded with the following:
"In the process of reporting on remarks by President Obama that were made during a CNBC interview, ABC News employees prematurely tweeted a portion of those remarks that turned out to be from an off-the-record portion of the interview. This was done before our editorial process had been completed. That was wrong. We apologize to the White House and CNBC and are taking steps to ensure that it will not happen again."
So, President OH-bama calls Kanye West a "jackass". An ABC reporter writes about it on Twitter, and then ABC immediately retracts it. Why would they retract it? It's probably the only thing OH-bama has said in the last 6 months that everyone agrees with.

I will be out broadcasting live at Wireless Zone's new location in Stafford this Friday from 5 to 7 P.M. Stop in for a couple of minutes and say, "Hi". We'll be giving away an HP Mini Netbook. You don't have to be present to win, but you do have to stop by and register. No purchase is necessary.
Fifty-two years ago today, a 25 year-old Patsy Cline married Charlie Dick in Winchester.
Happy Birthday today to McGruff, the Crime-Fighting Dog.
