Wait! Wait! Isn’t this a similar description of Tuesday’s GONH meeting?

Another senator who attended the meeting said Obama’s advisers refused to provide lawmakers with answers about whether the president plans to keep U.S. troops in Afghanistan after the war formally concludes later this year or about the Pentagon’s efforts to find nearly 300 kidnapped Nigerian school girls.

Unsatisfied, some of the lawmakers started to leave one by one before the meeting had finished. The senator and three congressional aides briefed on the meeting insisted on anonymity to discuss the private talks.

Heh!  The similarities are astounding:

  • Obama invites Sr. Senators in to talk foreign policy (doesn’t show), sends Sr. staff instead who refuse to answer questions.  Senators leave before the formal ending
  • Brown “invites” the GONH member in to talk Second Amendment, refuses to answer questions (directly).  Members leave before the formal ending

Actually, go read the post at Powerline.  Worth reading when a White House meeting is called and ‘bizarre’ is used.  Oh, and this:

The White House thinks it’s repairing relations with Congress – finally – but it’s actually insulting lawmakers instead.

I leave it to the reader to draw their own extrapolation for when complete, direct, detailed, and unambiguous answers are not forthcoming.
