Let’s imagine this occurred while a Republican was president
(Fox News) A group of young ballerinas rehearsing for “The Nutcracker†was kicked out of American University’s theatre so MSNBC host Chris Matthews could interview President Obama on Thursday.
American University admitted they dumped Ballet Petite’s two final dress rehearsals so they could host MSNBC’s “Hardball College Tour.†Matthews will be presiding over a one-hour conversation with the man he’s likened to President Kennedy’s last brother, President Abraham Lincoln and Jesus Christ.
The ballet company had been scheduled to rehearse on Wednesday and Thursday
in preparation for their opening performance on Sunday.
But, wait, it gets better!
Melissa Carney, the ballet company’s artistic director told The Washington Post they had signed a contract to rent the theatre in January. They were told they were being shoved out so Matthews could interview Obama on Tuesday.
In the Era Of Obama, contracts can be violated without penalty, simply so Obama can engage in a softball tee-ball interview with a guy who thinks Obama is the Messiah. How many health insurance contracts were cancelled? Anyhow, AU offered some concessions, but no apology for breaking the contract, but, really, had Bush done this the media would be up in arms about how shoddily he treated these 6 and 7 year old girls, and would trot out the “war on women” meme.
