Writing about the President’s visit on Saturday to the site of the 35W River Bridge collapse, Jeff Fecke of the Minnesota Monitor wrote:
Bush will be in town Saturday to survey the damage caused by the deadly collapse of the bridge, and to attend the Republican Party’s summer meeting, which is being held in Minneapolis.
Michael Brodkorb left two comments:
Have you confirmed with the White House that Bush is speaking at the Summer RNC meeting? Have you confirmed this with the RNC? I haven’t seen this reported anywhere.
[and…]
According to my source, the meeting has adjourned. President Bush did not attend the meeting, nor was he ever scheduled to attend the meeting.
The President landed in the Twin Cities (I watched it on TV) around 9:30, and got to downtown Minnepolis within the following hour; the RNC had reportedly adjourned about the time the President landed.
So – Jeff Fecke? Where did you get this little tidbit?
To be fair – we have no indication that the statement was plagiarized, per se.
But what is the source of this apparently utterly-fallacious statement?
“To be fair – we have no indication that the statement was plagiarized, per se.”
Good one!
I’m sure you will be surprised to know that Jeff has not replied to either of Michael’s questions….

Surprised?
Oh, yes. Blown completely away.
It is hardly news that this still happens… although, it is still enjoyable to see it continue.
Is Jeff Fecke the retarded cousin of Nick Coleman?
That’s a big insult to retarded people.
Ooh, new word: Fecke-tarded.
…and Nick-tarded?
Another new word: Cole-hearted.
I like Cole-hearted. That fits.
…or Cole-minded.
