Viral Campaign: Obama's 'Sweetie' Moment
Is anything more demeaning than having to suck up to a reporter after you called her "sweetie" and then left her a phone message saying it was a "bad habit?"
The video of Obama dissing a reporter's question,"Just a minute sweetie," is a youtube sensation.

ZOMG SWEETIE-GATE!!!!!
He should really just resign and let a sweetie like Hillary take up the mantle.
You gotta know this is getting ridiculous coverage at TaylorMarsh.com.

I have to agree, and not just because us robots have to stick together. Sweetie-gate spells doom for the Obama campaign. Do you think he has a shot at the veep slot?
Here's a video of the gaffe that ended it all:

It's not his fault - too much time in Iowa diners, he probably thought she was bringing him biscuits and gravy.

Maybe he should start calling everyone, "My Friend" like McCain. In that context, both have the same meaning.

I'm sure he's used to saying that at home. He does have two young daughters, not to mention his wife.
It is a term of endearment, I habit I would welcome in any father or husband.

My mother who is a 56 year old black woman raised in the north calls people (male and female) 'sweetie'. Does that make HER sexist? Get real and get over it.
