I can only find the twitter and I don't do the twitter, so that doesn't work. If someone who does have it and follows Contessa, could you send her this information about the student/gop staffer she had on her show?

College Student Questioning Obama Was Republican Staffer
By Jeralyn, Section Colorado News
Posted on Sun Aug 16, 2009 at 03:28:18 PM EST

Zach Lahn got a lot of attention yesterday for his question to President Obama in Grand Junction about how private insurance companies could possibly compete against a Government non-profit, and his cocky attitude, shouting out and play to the media.

He failed to disclose he was a staffer for one of Colorado’s most right-wing Republicans in the State legislature. (He’s taken his Linked-In profile down.) As Colorado Pols says:
http://www.state.co.us/gov_dir/leg_dir/Senate/members/S
http://coloradopols.com/diary/10079/sen-brophys-aide-ge

It also takes some “chutzpah” to fail to disclose to either the President or to reporters interviewing you afterward that you’re a staffer for one of the hardest-right Republicans in the Colorado Senate, Sen. Greg “Obama’s Gonna Take Yer Guns” Brophy, wouldn’t you say? It’s not like that should have disqualified him from asking the question–much like the infamous Brooks Brothers riot of Florida 2000 legend, though, it would have helped explain why he was so, um, “passionate.”

Here’s how he describes himself on his Twitter page (his tweets are private)

Determined Christian Conservative in CO, home state of IA not stopping until everyone agrees w/me Pro-Life, Pro-Guns, Pro-Reagan, Anti-Big Gov

Two days ago, his profile read:

Determined Christian Conservative Legislative Aide in CO, home state of IA not stopping until everyone agrees w/me Pro-Life, Pro-Guns, Pro-Reagan, Anti-Big Gov (my emphasis)

1. Good find!
That kid was so arrogant, challenging Obama to a debate. Figures that he's a rethuglican plant.

3. Contessa was the one who had the kid on her show. She handled him well, and might bring him back
for round 2 and call him out if she has this info.
