Obama Aide Defends Treating General as Waiter
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 4 Feb 2011 | John Semmens

Posted on 02/06/2011 10:59:52 AM PST by John Semmens

What observers took to be a gaffe was vigorously defended by Obama adviser Valerie Jarret. At a dinner hosted by the Alfalfa Club, Jarret asked a passing uniformed general to “bring me another glass of wine.”

“They’re called ‘service men’ for Pete’s sake,” Jarret argued. “I’m a high-ranking advisor to their Commander-in-Chief. If I ask for something I should be served. It’s not like I’m asking them to take a bullet for me, although I believe it would be their duty to honor such a request.”

Talk about weak excuse to say the least. Just another idiot who doesn’t understand the military nor respects it either. Obama himself doesn’t either.

Another elitist c**t relishing her opportunity to kick a white male in the ribs.

Just like:
“Call me Senator, not ma’am.”

This whole crowd is heading for a big, big, fall and unfortunately they’re taking us with them in a lot of ways.

Of course, they were elected, so ...

Since she also called Pete into the issue, I want to hear what Pete has to say. After all, their service is for Pet’s sake. It’s Pete who should be upset if he wasn’t getting the service he deserves...

Everyone relax the story is a joke.

Although admittedly with this administration it’s hard to tell.

Jarret argued. “I’m a high-ranking advisor to their Commander-in-Chief. If I ask for something I should be served. It’s not like I’m asking them to take a bullet for me, although I believe it would be their duty to honor such a request.”

This bimbo needs to go. I wasn't aware that advisors even had "rank."
