Common Sense: 11/12

" You have finally yeah it would take a lot a lot for me to turn down an invitation from the White House. And I'll have you know lines at -- there. I don't know if you've heard that I'm kind of a big deal so let's just say that I've gotten more than a few please kindly RS VP it's. From 1600 Pennsylvania happen. Republican president democratic president's Christmas parties. State dinners you know the usual star studded Dallas that aren't so starts -- was yours truly is among the -- studded. It was not easy to turn these things down although believe it or not now and then I had usually for a sudden emergence. Like last year when I had to cancel at the very last minute going to a state dinner -- state dinner. For the prime minister of Italy. I think what White House was inviting famous Italian Americans and actually and came to you literally popped up. That one was a real killer for me to decline but enough about hate. Back to folks who are big deals just like. You don't turn these things down likely. When the president talks up a big job summit next month at the White House that is a big deal.

Looking at the presidential paintings and the presidential art works and the president still. Well bakery in furniture and you have the president himself that well I think you really can't remember what the heck was gone out -- it. So if you have this summer they're good luck following up on and if you leave which could explain why so little comes of these summits. I think those who would tend simply forget what the heck it was -- was supposed to do when they were there. They're just so overwhelmed being dazzled that they can't remember a single -- Once they're marching out not a one I don't want my debts. Will recall the marching order at least the -- summit got some buzz and those attending a very different bonds. But that what had not -- and they had no home. But they did get some very nice pictures to prove that they would that. Even though I can guarantee. Not a one of them remembers what that hack anyone said. Which is why don't White -- kind of like Las Vegas whatever happens there stays there and not much happens. After you leave there. They give me. Then. Because in Canada big deal."
