Obama Bristles at Reporter’s Question on if His “Distancing from Israel” was a Mistake – Video

Here is video of President Obama bristling at a reporter’s question during a joint White House appearance with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Obama was asked if his policy of “distancing from Israel” and Netanyahu was “a mistake,” and contributes to others in the world feeling emboldened to bash Israel. Obama said he rejected the “premise of the question,” and claimed there have been no “public statements” during his Presidency to support the idea that he has been “distancing from Israel.” He was clearly defensive about the issue, and did not like the question!

OK, I have to level with you all.
I had, weeks ago, (actually *months*), made HG aware that I had purchased a ticket for Kelly Willis at McGonigel's 9:30pm show tomorrow in which Kelly Willis (far & wide better than Reba McIntire) would perform.
I won't rehash the events that have taken place since my arrival to Houston.

My sole concern was The Mom. Being a gentleman from Virginia my brow frowned at the thought of her standing at the bar whilst Kelly lent to our ears her serenades inspired by her Texas upbringing.

So, I propose, in evidence of the facts, that humblegunner pick up the tab.

Seriously - This place is wonderful. It is small, very quaint. From the seatless bar Eaker could toss HG to the stage.

So why didn’t he?

(I’m sitting under a highway bridge waiting for the rain to stop. Got nothin’ better to do right now ‘cept contemplate how much my ass hurts. This blacktop is miserable.)

I once ate a whole bag of marshmallows and a box of lemonhead candy.

I pooped Peeps® for a week...

By the way, looking at a map and I see there is a Humble, TX just northeast of Houston.

Gunner lives just outside of Humble in Homo.

Or something like that.

So why didn’t he?

Tomorrow, gunner-air makes his first flight.

Don’t go worrying about me, I grew up standing (and sometimes leaning) at the bar. ;-)

How disturbingly Freudian.
[although if you were a -guy-, I’d say flattering]

Sorry, missy.

Salamander doesn’t “swing that way”.

Perhaps you’d have better odds of finding a girlfriend on DU.

They’re a lot more....shall we say, “open minded” about that sort of thing.

Thanks for sharing.

Get video.

Must-see TV.

LOL!

p.s...since it’s his maiden voyage, don’t forget to whack him in the head with a bottle of champagne, first.

Bad Co. and BOC are playing at a rock festival Frederick MD August 1.

[Bad Co., high school and Saturday nights...now there’s some wild memories that I will not share]...LOL

Paul Rogers just may be my favorite rock vocalist of all time.

It's a tough call though. I'd have to flip a coin...Paul Rogers on one side - and Ronnie Van Zant on the other.

(Bon Scott wasn't bad either.)

Attempted facepalm...

Hit a snag.

Yikes! If y'all are going to turn a thread into a zotfest, at least get an admin to pop it in the title so no one clicks on a 175 post thread expecting interesting discussion....

And not to disparage your home town but this traffic s*cks! (I am at the hotel bar and I haven't drank in several weeks. How do these Houstonians drive in this every day?!)

Ah, you're learning quickly what seasoned Houstonians have known for a long time.

The Galleria area is about the most congested part of town and we avoid it whenever possible. Especially during the Christmas season.

Have a great visit!

Oh, OUUUCCHH!!!

It is interesting discussion...depending on what your definition of "interesting" is.

And it's not a zotfest...it's a hijack. ;-)

That’s an interesting talent you have there, Markos33!
