Oh Thank You Your Majesty For Touching Me!

Sheryl Crow & Laurie David:

In his attempt to dismiss us, Mr. Rove turned to head toward his table, but as soon as he did so, Sheryl reached out to touch his arm. Karl swung around and spat, 'Don't touch me.' How hardened and removed from reality must a person be to refuse to be touched by Sheryl Crow?

Source: The Corner – Karl Rove, Laurie David, and Sheryl Crow -- The Real Story (Byron York) Byron York excerpts Crow & David's version as they report on the Huffington Post. Byron also gets reports from a third party:

In the eyewitness' version, again, David and Crow are a bit more aggressive than their own story suggests. The eyewitness says David told Rove, You need to bring in new people to tell you the truth. Rove mentioned Dr. John Marburger, the White House science advisor. At that point, according to the eyewitness, Crow began poking Rove's chest with her finger, demanding to know what corporations were underwriting Marburger's work. Rove said Marburger had been in academia most of his career.

What stunning and monumental arrogance is contained in that statement? Karl should be flattered by being poked in the chest? Even if the Crow-David story is closer to reality why should we think Sheryl Crow's touch is soooo special?

In the end it is clear, Shreyl Crow & Laurie David want to restrict us peons from using the resources the aristocracy needs to jet around the world with their semi truckloads of gear so they can sing to us about soaking up the sun.
