Not content with making several apologizes via the MSM, Huckabee personally called Obama to apologize for his ill-conceived joke. And how did Obama respond?
Huck told our Suzi Parker that he called Obama last weekend to clear the air. “He didn’t think it was a big deal although the media did,” Huckabee tells us. “He was very nice about the whole thing.” Huckabee connected with Obama through Harold Ford Jr., who was a guest on Meet the Pressalong with Huckabee last Sunday. “He [Obama] told me he didn’t think it was a big deal, that he knew I didn’t mean anything by it and not to worry. He was a class act and gracious. Too bad the people who blew it up on the Internet weren’t as classy or calm as he was.”
You gotta admit, that was pretty classy on both Huckabee’s and Obama’s part.

I would never put the word “Classy”, Huckabee, and Obama in the same sentence. Wait I just did!
