>>>"I give the Osteens the benefit of the doubt">>>
Good for you, so do I. I'll even give the stewardess the benefit of the doubt. I'll say one woman had a migraine headache and the other one PMS, and we will have to guess which had which. The news media that blew this non story up and people with opinions, who weren't even there, have my undying contempt.
In this post-9/11 world, you raise hell on an airplane full of people, you're just liable to make the news. And if your husband appears on Larry King every quarter to advertise a new book, your profile will be even higher.
It appears that Virginia Osteen had a vapor-lock-of-the-brain moment, temporarily forgetting who she was married to. It happens.
