Jokes apart, I'm a big fan. I'm still completely and rapturously in awe of Obama. And considering a man who can be a talker as smooth as THIS, for the love of brilliant oratory(if nothing else), allow him the odd foot-in-mouth for once!
What's more? The president settles a scandal over jugs of ale!
I mean, this just escapes comprehension. The Harvard professor(Mr. Gates) , the cop(Mr. Crowley) and the Prez himself, bonding over beer like a bunch of college jocks, in all their post-minor-fist-fight glory. In the rose garden at the White House. That, my friends, is something truly amazing.

..and I'm a fan of ur blog :)
Keep writing and I shall keep reading.
See the difference!
If the PM here calls someone like those two for peace talk over beer ,will he be PM the next day??:D
@ Misanthropist : If it weren't for the occasional joy of being credited for it, I would have long abandoned it.
And after having spend a considerable time wandering through yours, I'm pretty sure it works both ways.
Consider yourself welcomed with a red carpet and drum-rolls. :)
@Srivatsan : Precisely why I think it is "truly amazing"!
Obama was the first president ever to have a poetry and jazz party at the white house. And he's so SMOOTH. Shallow reasons to like a President, but hey, he's not MY president. I can like him for being the hawt man he is.
Maybe it's time some hooch, toddy and bhang was introduced to the aristocrats of Race Course road as well.
@Death On Two Legs : The reasons may be shallow, but atleast they are very valid! He has presence, and he makes it a point to make good use of it. Not much can be said in that regard for our own Mrs. Pratibha Patil. Does she even exist? As for the PM. Well, I understand that he does not wish to err. But then, he doesn't do/say much of anything at all! Precautionary measure, perhaps?
@Anty : Now wouldn't THAT be a sight for sore eyes! I can just about manage to imagine a drunk Manmohan Singh. Something tells me, he'll be prone to giggling. A lot of giggling.
It's the "Happy Singh" stereotype perhaps.
;)
Well, my friend's father works in the PMO and he says that he is a "Happy Singh" but very much in control of his liquor.
I say, that's exactly what the country needed.
