I predict that Gates and Crowley will go on a speaking tour or engage in some sort of public discourse, at Obama's request.

On the radio I heard mention of them getting together again. Unfortunately the only part that I heard was something about drinking coolaid or lemonade next time so as not to "give the wrong idea".

It's the Obama effect: One afternoon with Obama they are both drinking the Kool-Aid.

CNN had one man on film with his poster saying how they should be drinking, and I quote "Kool-Aid" and orange juice because drinking beer sends a bad message to kids. Last time I checked, this meeting wasn't to send a message to kids. Three grown men had a beer, move on with your life mr. protester, and find something worth protesting about next time.

Kool-aid is probably worse for your health than beer.

Well now I've seen everything. Last night on the McLaughlin group, John McLaughlin and Pat Buchanan, both staunch hard-right-wingers, described Obama's "let's have a beer" meeting as an example of his political genius!

While I may have thought this was true, I about choked when I heard Buchanan say it. When McLaughlin chimed in supporting the comment, it was too much to take. I am now convinced that this is all a dream.
