1. I just finished watching it on YouTube. Obama handled the question about |
|
Bonds very well. He mentioned Hank Aaron, who broke the Babe's record WITHOUT steroids and managed to subtly indicate disapproval of Bond's steroid rep while at the same time indicating that not inviting Bonds would be a difficult call...

3. My first impression was "what a stupid question" but even more than that |
|
The question was really meant to see how Obama stands on Bonds' in light of the controversy of his steroid use. And Obama knew that. Yet Olbermann asked would he "invite him to the White House." If Olbermann wanted to know his opinion on the deservedness of Bonds' achievement, he should have asked directly. Under the circumstances, I think Obama answered well.
