ACORN “Prostitute” Hannah Giles Asks Newsweek‘s Ezra Klein To Dinner

Love is in the air at Andrew Breitbart satellite blog Big Journalism, where ACORN gumshoe Hannah Giles (the “prostitute” to James O’Keefe‘s “pimp” and woman who exposed Max Blumenthal‘s booger problem) is exhibiting some strangely moderate behavior. After a light-hearted crash course in the early life of a future CPAC superstar, Giles explains that she is not alone in being a young journalist out to find the big story, but she wouldn’t mind being a little less lonely at dinnertime. And she’s willing to reach across the aisle to find her Prince Charming. Ezra Klein, sounds like you have some cooking to do.

If you ignore the title of her post (a pretty blunt “Ezra Klein, Will You Cook Me Dinner?“), Giles is narrating the compelling tale of the next generation of journalists, a ragtag group of idealists out to set the record straight on their beliefs and keep the politicians and special interests in line. Her story in particular of being taught by her parents to feel no fear, of demanding to be home-schooled because she was afraid of the public school system, and her rise to the top of the young media world sounds like it should stand alone as an inspiration to all the young conservatives out there thinking of a career in the press. But then she talked about her latest crush:

Klein is a highly motivated individual who has definitely turned heads in Washington, and is well on his way to taking over. And he isn’t some malicious power hungry conspirator, working from the bad-guys version of the bat cave. He’s just a dude with a vision, and has the creative diligence to go out and make it real.

Not to mention, he made it on Jezebel’s Top ten sexiest everyday men of 2008 list, and is an avid health-food chef. Mix drive, intelligence, a national platform, looks and cooking skills and the nation has itself a new young liberal leader. [...]

So here’s my challenge to Mr. Klein: how about it, Ezra? Will you make me dinner one evening? Let’s put our ideas to the test and see who wins.

Well, can’t really blame Giles for taking advantage of her newfound fame. Plus, Klein is quite fetching – though, clocking it at two years older than Giles, I feel like a bit of a cougar admitting it.

She’s probably looking to align herself with someone more legit, especially now that ACORN has been cleared of all charges after her old pimp’s heavily edited “expose”.

Who cares about political opinion? Ezra should say yes.

I don’t understand Frances’ last comment. Cougar? 2 years older than Giles? That would make you 22? How the hell is that a ‘cougar’? What is Klein? 30-ish? A cougar is supposed to be a coupla decades older than the guy. I’m totally confused but being that this isn’t exactly important news, I shall move on.

Clarification: The way Hannah writes, you’d think Klein was like, maybe, 15. Looks a little young, too. Andrew Ross Sorkin makes me feel equally predatory (and he’s got to be in his 30s). Also, I take offense that the fact that you do not see the grave significance of this news. This is the next James Carville and Mary Matalin!

Frances?

Keep your chin up…we all recognize a slow news day when we see it. Soon a real story will raise it’s ugly head and you can jump right on it. Keep the faith…and other cliches like that one….

If he turns her down I question his sexuality

Really couldn’t top this comment on BigJournalism to Ms. Giles article:

Good article Hannah.
I was quite engrossed in reading it, until I scrolled down to the point that there was Michael Moore in shorts. Then I was just grossed out.

Kids these days.

One day Hannah Giles is playing pretend to be a ho’, next day she is acting like a pro.

Maybe she can land a job as a Mediaite “columnist”?

It’s a shit-test. The minute he agrees to cook her dinner she’ll get turned off. She’s a conservative woman, she wants the man to lead. Real men don’t cook women dinner. Not on a first date.
