Gatesgate

The controversy surrounding the arrest of Henry Louis Gates, Harvard University scholar and educator, and the subsequent allegations of racial profiling and racism against the Cambridge (MA) Police Department.

The health care lobbyist is annoyed that Gatesgate has overshadowed the news coverage of the debate to which she has invested so much time.

Twank

An over-the-hill twink.
