Not quite. Obama says, "If they need me, they can call me." President Bush called his bluff. Now he looks like he was called to the woodshed.

My guess is the call went something like this:

President Bush: Hello Senator Obama, this is the President.

The One: Wassup whitey?

President Bush: Just to let you know, I'm addressing the American people this evening. I have two versions of my speech, one in which I say you are missing in action during a time of crisis, while John McCain put his country first, and another in which I thank both candidates for coming back to Washington. You can pick which one I say.

The One: Whatchoo talkin' bout Willis?

President Bush: Good day, Barry.

Bush gave a good speech. He was absolutely right and explained the situation properly.

If they are smart, they will hold this at Blair House.
