I don’t know if anyone else is surprised that he was actually able to be forced to call her, but I sure am.

Barack Obama didn’t call nancy. His alter ego, The One, made the call. No doubt he was scratching his cheek with his middle finger during the entire conversation.

I certainly had doubts, and waited for confirmation from the Reagan side that this call ever happened.

I was initially surprised, but then it confirmed what we have known about “Dear Leader” and his handlers.
That is, in front of Chicago organizers, liberationists, leftists, and friends from the “hood” he can handle a television level mentality crowd. He cannot handle anything more than that, and it must be carefully staged- we will see more staging. And it is only a very short while before some of the media turns, and the idiot voter's buyer's remorse sets in. The danger is in the doing, of course, especially in foreign policy.
“Dear Leader” is a tone deaf moron politically in front of the real America. In his thug manner at his debut press conference, just as he did in the debates, he chose to insult the surviving spouse of a REVERED popular Republican President. A conscious, arrogant punk in an empty suit. The people who tell him what to think and say (remember Bill Clinton's speech about BHO calling him to ask what to say about the bailout legislation?)-no doubt confronted him to call Nancy and apologize, and also to report the call to the press. Nancy and her friends the Annenberg’s descendants will not forget this.
We need to watch this useful agitprop every day.

I can only think of one person that could order him to do it post-haste and without question.
