Teleprompted

It should be remembered that Ron Fournier, who this week worked hard to twit the new Rightwing meme that Obama can't communicated without a teleprompter, and now admits he doesn't know what the FDIC does, had his own "communication problems" just last summer. In the form of love notes to Karl Rove.

In one email, Rove asked, "How does our country continue to produce men and women like this?" Fournier responded: "The Lord creates men and women like this all over the world. But only the great and free countries allow them to flourish. Keep up the fight."

Fournier later expressed "regret" at the "breezy nature" of his sign-off. Bus as Media Matters noted, "Have a great weekend" is breezy, "Keep up the fight" is an expression of solidarity.

UPDATE: To clarify, it was a "problem" for Fournier last summer when the email was made public, but the email was actually sent in 2004...during the Bush re-election campaign...to the guy managing said campaign...by the guy the AP had assigned to cover said campaign.
