TELL ME, WHO ARE YOU THIS TIME?


Here's Scarlett as viewed through our Peephole. Watch your back, Scarlett. We see you. We don't tolerate any tweenie idol worship here. Barack is no Jonas Bros--I'm sure his balls have dropped by now. If, instead, we had been outside your door, we might have overheard your squeals of delight upon receiving those loving emails from Barack. Unfortunately, it was all in your head, the same place where the sound of your voice singing Tom Waits is acceptable.

She recently told Politico, "You'd imagine that someone like the senator who is constantly traveling and constantly 'on' - how can he return these personal emails? But he does, and in his off-time I know he also calls people who have donated the minimum to thank them." Well, Barack 'threw her under the bus' (as politicos love to say these days):

Speaking to reporters aboard his campaign plane, Obama said the actress doesn't have his personal email address. "She sent one email to Reggie, who forwarded it to me," Obama said, referring to his 26-year-old personal assistant, Reggie Love. "I write saying, 'thank you Scarlett for doing what you do,' and suddenly we have this email relationship."

Ouch. I think Michelle has something to do with this. Scarlett looms large above the Soon-Yi/Woody marital bed-- you know Michelle doesn't want any competition in that arena.
And what is that thing Scarlett does anyway? Is it this? --


Come on, don't be mad, turn around...I'm sorry I said that. We DO have an email relationship. We DO!
