Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to speak to Congress at 11:00 a.m., but it appears that President Obama will not be watching most of the speech. The White House Press Office released an update to his daily schedule this morning, announcing a video conference call with world leaders for 11:30 a.m. in the situation room, likely as Netanyahu is finishing his speech. According to the White House, the conference will include British Prime Minister David Cameron, French President Francois Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, and European Commission President Donald Tusk. The last minute scheduling update emphasizes Obamas role as a world leader, at a time when Netanyahu will likely challenge the presidents approach to negotiations with Iran. The world leaders are expected to discuss Ukraine and global security issues. Yesterday, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest was asked by reporters if Obama would watch the speech. I havent looked at the Presidents schedule for tomorrow, Earnest replied. I doubt that he will spend his whole time watching the speech.

“I never heard of anything so small and petty.”
Very sad indeed. I am very ashamed of this President. How embarrassing on the world stage we are.
Obama is acting like a jealous middle school girl. Disgusting.
Sorry my post didn’t make sense. It keeps Bibi off the call and other world leaders from watching the speech. That’s what I meant to say.
Need more caffeine!
At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child - miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied,
demanding, ill disciplined, despotic, and useless. Liberalism is the philosophy of sniveling brats.

Michelle, they're picking on me again.
“O” wants to steal Bibi’s thunder.
Whatever the speech and whatever the effect... “O” wants to dilute the effect by staging his own side show.
THAT is what the US Presidency has become... a SIDESHOW to the main event.
“O” has made himself and the US irrelevant to the most significant events of this decade.
Thanks “O”
Maybe when Rip Van Winkle wakes up, things will return to normal!
“speak to Congress at 11:00 a.m.”
I thought it was at 10am on C-Span2?
Oooops, now I see it revised to 10:45...
On the other hand, I think it is very possible we are going to be disappointed in Bibi, as in what he will not say.
What a puke !
his childish temper tantrum be extended to a teleconference with “world leaders” so they wont watch BiBi’s speech! HA! I’d send some undersecretary to take that call because I was “indisposed”.
He really is a spiteful, childish prick. Our POTUS.
What’s a ‘maker’?
Are Obama and David Cameron lovers? What’s with the ‘me and mini me’ routine?
Opposite of taker.
Thanks
