This has been everywhere already, but we’re still giggling over the story of how Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) hung up on President-Elect Barack Obama because she thought he was a prank caller. And then issued a press release about it, in which her office misspelled both Obama’s first name and the last name of Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel.
