I hope this is the main Republican talking point for the election.
I can see it in my mind's eye.
Perry: Do you have an answer to the question, Mr. President? Obama: Absolutely. My answer is I don't have to explain why I made those calls. Maybe I felt like extending a hand to the world. And maybe, just maybe, we could make some real progress. I'm an educated man, but I'm afraid I can't speak intelligently about your sudden interest in who I called at at what time. What I do know is that I'm the President and I call other people and talk about Presidential stuff. Now, are these the questions I was really called here to answer? Phone calls and Super Bowl menus? Please tell me that you have something more, Mr. Perry . This nation is in a struggle for its very existence. Please tell me you haven't pinned their hopes to a phone bill.
