Okay, somebody fill me in. Did Obama call someone sweetie again?

[mrreowwr_kittty]

I was at a late meeting with clients and I come back an there's all kinds of threads about being called sweetie.

What happened? :shrug:

[mcctatas]

1. Yes, his political future is in shambles because he called a

reporter sweetie (and subsequently apologized)

Hi Peggy. This is Barack Obama. I'm calling to apologize on two fronts. One was you didn't get your question answered and I apologize. I thought that we had set up interviews with all the local stations. I guess we got it with your station but you weren't the reporter that got the interview. And so, I broke my word. I apologize for that and I will make up for it.

"Second apology is for using the word 'sweetie.' That's a bad habit of mine. I do it sometimes with all kinds of people. I mean no disrespect and so I am duly chastened on that front. Feel free to call me back. I expect that my press team will be happy to try to make it up to you whenever we are in Detroit next."
