Both the president and Congressman [Gary] Peters stood in front of a large display case filled with salads, meats, desserts and other goodies. Both men ordered Reuben sandwiches (apparently a specialty) and iced teas, while POTUS also got a side of  "Che Che spin" salad.

Obama later reminisced about his reuben experience while speaking at the University of Michigan. Here's what he said per the pool report:
"I stopped for two reasons. The first is, the reuben is killer. So I ordered like the small, and it didn't look that small. So I gave half to Valerie Jarrett who's traveling with us. And then after I finished the half, I wanted the half back. But it was too late. All she had left was the pickle. So I took the pickle."

 

 

nothing going on, so this is news now.

Brûlé is french for "burned."

So is this a metaphor for Obamacare? Obama (American citizen) gets a big ol' delish Reuben (American healthcare) and decides to share it with his neighbor (subsidized folks) but when he wants more Reuben (healthcare) all he gets in return is a soggy pickle (obamacare).

I suck at metaphors so it might be a reach.
