When you see an Instapundit link that says “White House official calls gays part of ‘Internet left fringe,” what do you think happened?
A) A White House official called gays part of the “Internet left fringe.”
B) A White House official called certain groups on the left that press for gay issues as part of the “Internet left fringe.”
C) An MSM reporter who appeared on a TV show made the claim that the White House views certain groups on the left that press for gay issues as part of the “Internet left fringe.”
D) An MSM reporter who appeared on a TV show made the claim that the White House views its “opposition” on the left as part of the the “Internet left fringe,” although it wasn’t entirely clear from the context whether the reference to its “opposition” specifically meant gay-rights groups or the opposition on the left as a whole.
My best sense is that in this case, the answer for what happened is “D.”
