Obama Calls to Congratulate Clinton on W. VA - Gets Answering Machine

[K Gardner]

I just thought this was too funny and ironic.

One, because our Democratic Nominee is continually SO gracious and the gentleman in the face of being placed in total limbo by Hillary's Quest. I wonder how many times she has called him to congratulate HIM on his multiple wins.

Secondly, because it wasn't even 3 a.m. and she didn't answer the phone !

:rofl:

1. are you sure he didn't get the message:

"the number you called is no longer in service"?

[K Gardner]

4. OMG.. I didn't think about that.. too funny !

[LisaM]

2. I presume you mean voice mail.

Perhaps she was talking to someone else. Is she supposed to be available for St. Obama 24/7?

[K Gardner]

5. Have you lost your sense of humor, too?

[iamthebandfanman]

8. oh lord no

hillary is definitely not expected to be a good sport and want to talk to her competitor afterwards.

why would we think shed start having a heart or being a good role model now?

[woolldog]

11. yeah usually you would take the call

Who would she be talking to who is more important than Obama? campaign staff? Carville?

Even George Bush took Al Gore's call.

[TahitiNut]

15. Yup. I'll bet those bill collectors keep her lines busy from 8am to 9pm.

:eyes:

20. Does it make you feel special to call him St. Obama? Why does anyone ask why

so many people hate her supporters just as much as they hate her?

btw, I hear the wingnuts are calling him Barry. Try it out.

[LisaM]

22. Not really. I was referring to the OP's implication

that she should somehow be hanging around waiting for his call (of course, we don't even know if this happened!)

[eleny]

25. I have no doubt that they would see the ID of who was calling if they were using the phone

Not taking the call is in very bad form.

[K Gardner]

28. 1. I never implied that, ever. 2. STOP CALLING PEOPLE LIARS .. it is truly getting

old old old.. when you guys hear something you don't like, just call the person reporting a LIAR.

24. If she wants to be

VP she better answer the phone when the Commander in Chief calls.

[roguevalley]

30. courtesy in public counts.

[DJ13]

3. Did Hillary bounce the paycheck for her secretary?

:rofl:

[Occam Bandage]

6. I'm sure she's very busy, what with the huge flood of superdelegate endorsements after last night.

7. You get the 'who cares' award for the day. nt

[K Gardner]

14. You got it two months ago.. I'm just trying to catch up. Thanks !

[illumn8d]

21. You cared enough to read and respond to the thread

[ronnykmarshall]

9. self delete

[K Gardner]

12. Definitely a scarcity of humor left in the Clinton Camp !

[Mme. Defarge]

10. That darned Caller I.D.! n/t

[nichomachus]

13. She probably thought he was another bill collecter

[Starbucks Anarchist]

16. She probably thought it was the collection agency.

[genna]

17. Didn't CNN report that Hillary was available to accept John McCain's call?

Her voice mail/answering machine did not have put in TOO MUCH work last night. At least we know, who is important?

[hisownpetard]

18. So the question now is: did she even have the courtesy to return the call?

No need to answer.

:nuke:

19. What a wench, she was probably curled up in the fetal position crying like a baby

EXTRA, EXTRA, PHONE SNUB GATE ENDS OBAMA'S LIFE IN POLITICS!!!!!11111

27. I have found it generally easy to call people when I know

they aren't available if I don't really want to talk to them - for example, if I want to cancel an appointment, but I don't want to get into a conversation about it. I'm wondering if he doesn't want to talk to her. Perhaps he's intimidated by her.

[barack the house]

29. The answer machine ready to be presidnt on day one.

[Froward69]

31. She must have known

where Bill was. otherwise she would have answered.

[LTR]

32. It would have been even more ironic if it were disconnected

:rofl:
