Video cross-posted here at NewsBusters. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, Rachel Lauten, Communications Director for Congressman Stephen Fincher (R-Tenn.) commented that after seeing the Obama daughters’ bored reaction to the annual White House turkey pardon “try showing a little class. At least respect the part you play. Act like being in the White House matters to you." Predictably, the liberal media had a field day with the unknown Capitol Hill staffer’s comments, which and Ms. Lauten ultimately resigned from her job but that didn’t stop MSNBC host Rachel Maddow from overreacting to the supposed controversy during her Monday evening program. The MSNBC host argued that Lauten’s comments demonstrate how President Obama has “had worse attacks than any other president that has come before him for a number of reasons, including race.”
