    Default Since the cat is out of the bag...

    Might as well tell you guys since ABC already leaked the story:

    http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpu...ent-ob-10.html

    I think it was a pretty decent interview. I thought I'd give my first interview to an Arab news channel to flex that international hunkiness I have (as 2Pac used to say "if you got it, flaunt it" ).

    It'll air tonight 11pm ET. Hope you like it.







    And what's the deal with cats and bags anyways? I've never seen a cat put in a bag in my life. Have you? Weird.

    Interesting, my Lord said he will watch the interview. He wants to see if President Obama skills as a diplomat, learn his tricks, and plan for the day he comes face to face with this president. But a far more interesting story is happening beneath the story, ABC could use some of the moderators from here to clean up their comments section.

    Can't wait to see it. But I doubt there will be anything new.

    An Interesting move, one that reflects your more consieratory tone with the muslim world at large perhaps?

    On a side note, I once put my pet can in a bag, he got out pretty quick.

    Well they do say that cats are fast learners... They also say that sharks learn 50 times faster than cats!

    I heard once (not sure if it's true though) that for a time pigs were illegal to sell. So people sold them on the black market in bags. An some people put cats in bags, pretending they were pigs to rip off their customers. Anyway, if someone lets the cat out of the bag, well, it's revealing a secret (that it's not a pig, it's a cat).

    Like I said though, I'm not sure if this is a true story or not.

    well that makes more sense then a lot of sayings. Or maybe its just that cats a pain in the ass to get into anything, and once they get out...lord, you know your certainly not getting them in a 2nd time...not without deep claw marks.

    I heard that the cat in question is a cat o' nine tails, a type of whip used on ships to flog seamen. In the Royal Navy, it was kept in a black velvet bag, and if it was taken out someone was going to be flogged.
    If you were lucky, then the area they would try and flog you in would be too small to swing a cat

    Nice move.

    I'm not sure how you can reach that conclusion. It sounds to me like he is being fair and even-handed.

    Cats, fast learners?

    Ridicolous! My first cats used plenty of days to understand how to use the friggin cat-door, not to mention how to poop in the box of sand.

    I love this, as if the mideast is somehow misunderstood and they really aren't out for their own gain... But the big bad United States just won't let up... I've got to deal with this for four years, I hope Obama is seen as weak and countries take advantage of us just to get the Officer Doofus out of office.
    Sure I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is Im not. I honestly feel that America is the best country and all other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

    Of course every country is out for their own gain, you think they should be out for the gain of the US?

    So you hope you get taken advantage of, so Obama looks bad, so you wont get taken advantage of... oh wait...

    This is another example of the 'I hope he fails so we don't fail' illogical rubbish that bitter Republicans are spouting. If he doesn't fail in the first place, great right? But no, you would rather see the world burn than admit you are wrong.

    Yeah, how dare he try and improve relations with the countries that are the world's main energy providers, and who have been outraged by the last 8 years of US foreign policy
