Clinton: Obama to visit Turkey


You know what's going to happen, right? The same way they bitch because President Obama goes outside the beltway (so they gripe he's not "back at the White House fixing things"), they'll kvetch that he should stay home and do whatever it is that they think needs doing at the time. We need to remind them of the "walk and chew gum" saying...

ANKARA, Turkey (CNN) — President Obama plans to visit Turkey in about a month, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Saturday.

Clinton was holding talks in Ankara with officials "to emphasize the work the United States and Turkey must do together on behalf of peace, prosperity and progress," she said.

Obama had said he was going to deliver a speech in a Muslim capital within the first hundred days of his presidency. Clinton did not say that Obama would be making such a speech during this visit.
