I'm glad the President will not be addressing Parliament, I don't think I could take being embarrassed by our 'leaders' yet again.
Remember Bush refused to attend the NAACP convention each year also. He does not feel the presidency is a punching bag.
You will note that he always insures that he does not do anything to dishonor the presidency. That is why he does not throw cheap punches, make hateful comments. He is pure class as is the position of President of the U.S.
Another reason we love this man - no matter how many liberals paint him as a dummy, a Hitler, a moron, a war-mongerer.
He is taking care of us - the American heartland, and we understand what motivates this fine man.
