The Slurpee Summit

From Politico:

President Obama may have postponed the so-called “Slurpee summit” with Republican leaders originally planned for this Thursday, but 7-Eleven is still going ahead with theirs.

“Ours certainly isn’t postponed,” said Margaret Chabris, the director of 7-Eleven corporate communications told POLITICO Tuesday night. “We’re still on. We’re gonna spread the Slurpee love with or without this meeting.”

Chabris said the company is going ahead with plans to have Slurpee trucks outside of Union Station, where they will be handing out red, white and blue icy, sugary drinks as well as “Purple for the people” Slurpees…

…”We are still at their beck and call,” she said. “If they want us to cater the Slurpee summit or put Slurpee machines in the White House, we’re there.”

“We’re still hopeful,” she said. “We have the ‘audacity of hope.'”

During the next State of the Union, the GOPers should all have slurpees in hand during the speech.
