Obama comment made during Santorum visit probed

Sounds like Obama himself said something inappropriate about Santorum, doesn't it? Well this is what the article is really about:

Quote: MONROE, La. -- A comment made by a spectator during Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum's visit to West Monroe has led to a Secret Service investigation.

Santorum was at the Ouachita Parish Sheriff's Office Rifle Range on Friday morning as part of his campaign through Louisiana before Saturday's Republican presidential primary.

While Santorum was firing off some rounds from a gun at a paper target before delivering his campaign speech , an unidentified woman in the crowd shouted: "Pretend it's Obama."

Why do people make ignorant comments like this? Did she think it was funny? I don't hear anyone laughing.

Actually there were quite a few laughs by the others at the photo op after the women spewed forth her hate.

Secret Service didn't find it all that funny - they are attempting to find out who made the comment.

Oh, and that headline shows why our education system sucks. Leading with a direct object like that can only lead to misinterpretation.
