“Hold on Sweetie till I can answer your question with a teleprompter.”
Sweetie-Gate!
Here comes Hillary, how Obama is patronizing women and putting them down....
He should have just hugged her, and then ask his aides who she is and get her number, get her some job in White House and then assault her in the Oval Office when she comes to ask for help as her family is falling apart! Later on if she squeaks, hire Agents to slash her tires and kill her cat.
That’s how real men treat women!
Obama has two young daughters.....he probably calls them sweetie....force of habit.....
I don’t find “sweetie” condescending. Perhaps inappropriately-familiar, but event that’s a stretch.
Please do not tell me it is politically incorrect to call somebody “sweetie”. “Sweetie” is like calling a guy “pal”, or “friend”.
Are we now at the point where you can not refer to somebody by anything but their given name?
Just last week, a gate attendant for Southwest Air did me favor, and I told her she was a “sweetie”. I hope I did not insult her.

I’d give him a pass on this one. The guy has two little girls. Never mind he doesn’t know how many states in the union.
This is too ridiculous. What on earth is wrong with calling a woman “Sweetie?” That is a perfectly polite word and I have been called “sweetie” or “honey” or “darlin” many a time and never have been offended. Believe me there are a lot of words people use about women these days that I wish someone would wash all their mouths out with soap, but “sweetie?” It’s perfectly innocent.
To me the story is that he was meek and silly enough to apologize over that. Ugh!
“Hang on Sloopy while I finish muh waffle.”
I am sure it would have gone over well if she’d responded, “no problem, ‘boy’.”
Britney gal mode on:
Leave Barack alone!!! Can’t you see he’s eating his waffles!!
Obama calls reporter sweetie!
What would Michelle Obama do if she were called ‘sweetie’?
