[url=http://www.nationaljournal.com/obama-boehner-to-seek-peace-over-slurpees--20101103]National Journal[/url] [release]A summit perhaps, but the Slurpee may be optional. After President Obama's warm welcome to the idea of a slushy icebreaker with Republican John Boehner, the Ohio Republican responded positively. To a point. In an interview with Diane Sawyer on Thursday, Boehner liked the idea of a meeting, if not the 7-Eleven convenience-store staple. "I don’t know about a Slurpee, how about a glass of merlot?'' he asked the ABC anchor. As Obama and congressional leaders prepare to meet on November 18, 7-Eleven has approached the White House about catering with the drink, rebranded in new ads as the drink "that brings people together." “If the president wants a Slurpee Summit, we’re offering to cater it with red and blue Slurpees, and we’ll even offer a purple Slurpee since that’s what you get when you bring red and blue together," company spokeswoman Margaret Chabris said on MSNBC this morning. The mention of the slushy staple prompted a broad smile from Obama in an otherwise somber and introspective postelection White House press conference Wednesday. When asked if he planned to invite Boehner over for a Slurpee, Obama brightened, replying: "I might serve a Slurpee. They're delicious drinks!'' The reference came from the campaign trail, where Obama often described Democrats as digging the car out of the ditch while Republicans recline and watch, "sipping on a Slurpee.'' Boehner spokesman Michael Steel initially responded that the presumptive incoming House Speaker would be willing to slurp -- if Obama would work with Republicans on spending cuts and the economy. On the topic of Slurpees, Steel added: "The new 'Wicked Apple' flavor sounds awesome."[/release] The most american of drinks.
Haha fuckin' hypocrites. Obama gets mustard on his burger and fox goes wild, meanwhile Boehner refuses a Slurpee for a glass of merlot.
Slurpee, the new national drink of the United States.

Honestly reporting minuscule things like this is just stupid. So what, he wanted to go out and get some food at a burger joint or 7-11?

Between this and the beer summit, Obama has good taste.
