    Yeah, Romney isn't the President and avoiding speaking with Foreign Leaders at a time where Israel and Iran can be going to war to go on Fox News.

    I don't see Fox News with such a record.
    Nothing is wrong with the View, but if Obama finds that to be more important than his Presidential duties, then I am sure he will find plenty of time to go on The View when he is voted out of office in a few months.

    And by the way, is something wrong with The View? It's been nominated for thirteen Emmys for Outstanding Talk Show on the Daytime Emmy Awards (winning once), nominated thirteen times for Outstanding Talk Show Host (again, winning once), won the People's Choice Award twice, the NAACP Image Award three times, and the Critic's Choice Award once.

    I don't see Fox News with such a record.

    Most importantly, The View is a popular show, meaning that it lets him get his message to a lot of people, a smart thing to do for someone running for re-election.

    So running for re-election now is more important than his Presidential duties? Dude even CNN isn't buying that crap as they made pounded him last night for it.

    I've heard that from a lot of ignorant GOPs. "Why is Obama spending so much time campaigning when he should be running the country?"

    Duh. All incumbent Presidents in history have done the same thing at this time in their first terms.

    Yet it is still important to meet with World Leaders, that is their job. And at a time when the Mid East is in turmoil, and war with Iran is on the horizon, you would think he would take the opportunity to spend face time with them, especially with Ahmadinajad is in town, than chat it up with the ladies of The View. I mean seriously which is more important? The Middle East? Or The View?

    If Ahmadinajad was in town, I'd want him to leave town as soon as possible. I certainly wouldn't want the President to speak to him. The guy is insane, Roy, and certainly you can't deny THAT.

    I don't deny that but as President you have to deal with bad people, and this is the perfect chance to get a one on one chat with him, especially to gauge his willingness to retaliate against the U.S. if Israel were to strike Iran.

    By the way as the AP notes:

    Both Presidents George W. Bush in 2004 and Bill Clinton in 1996, though, held a series of meetings with foreign leaders during U.N. visits in their re-election years.

    Also it WAS delivered as a joke:

    ""Basically he was retelling the story and when he said ‘I don’t know why they don’t have roll down windows on airplanes,’ he looked at the audience and everyone laughed,” Everitt told TheBlaze. “It was a clearly delivered joke … There were 1,000 people there that will tell you the same thing.”"

    I told you I'd be back when Mr. Obama hit 50% in the polls.

    So I'm back.

    I'll remind you again, Roy, you claimed that the Gallup Polls were accurate when they said that voter enthusasm among Democrats was down, only to try to debunk the exact same updated poll by Gallup that said it had greatly improved.
