That would have been my reply had I been the man in the Class-A’s
During an exclusive dinner hosted Monday by the Alfalfa Club, Obama adviser Valerie Jarret had just such a moment. And were it not for an irritated tipster, Jarret might have walked away from the dinner unblemished.
According to our tipster, Jarrett was seated at the head table along with several other big-name politicians and a handful of high-ranking military officials. As an officer sporting several stars walked past Jarrett, she signaled for his attention and said, “I’d like another glass of wine.â€
Garçon!
White House economic adviser Austan Goolsbee, who was seated next to Jarret, began “cracking up nervously,†our tipster said, but no one pointed out to Jarrett that the man sporting a chestful of medals was not her waiter.
And the next day I’d have been asked to resign by the CIC.
That general was more of a gentleman than all of the suits in that room put together… And, yeah, I would have been right there next to you ;).
How he had the strength of will to have gotten her that glass of wine and then not dumped it on her head, is amazing.
I guess that after all, there really is a militarily justifiable reason for Obama’s “Courageous Restraint” medal?
The good General has embodied such, magnificently.

He could have gotten her a glass, then another, then another and another and another and another forced down her throat until she was really ripped and barfing under the table. That would have been cool.
