What guy calls anyone “sweetie??”

[BlueStateBlues]

I bet she gets a sit down with Obama now. The sweet young thing deserves it.

[Lizavetta]

This is such a nonstory.

I'd gladly call a male 'honey' or 'sweetie' and it would mean nothing derogatory. It would be a term of friendliness and nothing more.

Can we all focus on Obama's socialist tendencies and not that he called someone 'sweetie'?

[roses of sharon]

She was none to happy about it, how sexist.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Well,was she a sweetie? Any pics?

[Frank_2001]

Well, maybe he thought he would sound tough and macho, which surveys have identified as important in those vast stretches of emptiness over which you are forced to fly while on your way from Manhattan, Center of the Universe, to some other important place, like Beverly Hills/s;)

When I was a little boy, people used “sweetie pie” as a term of endearment when speaking to a girlfriend or sometimes a child. But today, the press would only allow someone like Obama to get away with it.

[Doc91678]

Is this indicative of something we should know about?

[KoRn]

The feminazis and the NAGS types may be pissed about this, but other than that, who cares...

My friend’s girlfriend calls me sweetie.

Dunno why, but she does.

[Scotswife]

It would be funny if this became more controversial than his “10,000 dead” statement after last year’s tornado.

Or more controversial than his 57 states comment.

Think of how Quayle suffered just for adding an e on potato.

[TheWasteLand]

Also what he calls John Edwards. True story.

[jpf]

If he were a Republican the feminists would be staging an angry villager scene outside his Senate office right this very second. But he's not so...

Oh, and how is he going to help the workers at the plant? Simple...ah. Raise taxes? Tick off our trading partners? Yeah, stuff like that.

This ties in nicely with the crack smoking/homosexual rumors. This is going to be a fun election.

[haroldeveryman]

“I don’t think it’s that big of a deal.”

We’re Freepers around here. This “hold on a minute Sweetie” thing is Trivial Pursuit. Let Chris Matthews kick it around for a month or two. Maybe it will send another tickle up his leg.

Obama Calls a Michigan Reporter “Sweetie” ~ the reporter was a MAN...baby!!!!

[redstates4ever]
