When asked about his summer reading, Pres. Obama answered....
“We've been talking about health care for nearly a century. I'm reading a biography of Teddy Roosevelt right now. He was talking about it, Teddy Roosevelt,” Obama told a crowd in Glenside, Pennsylvania. The book, the White House said later, was Edmund Morris’ The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt, part of the historian’s trilogy on the Colonel.
When asked about his thoughts on The President of the United States of America reading his book, Edmund Morris replied.....
“Well, that’s nice, but the president can’t have gotten very far into it, because right there in the prologue it says how TR detested being called ‘Teddy.’ Maybe a blob of cigarette ash obscured that particular sentence.”
OUCH!
