Telling Barack Obama that “Hillary Clinton called” might land one in trouble, for this is one of the 21 things that the White House staff is barred from saying to the U.S. President.
According to the Politico, a list of 21 things the staff were not allowed to say to the President was circulated in the White House.
The 21 Things You Cannot Say to the President after a News Conference are:
1. Hey, we hear the Golf Channel is going to carry it next time. Well, actually, only the Golf Channel is going to carry it next time.
2. Don’t worry. We’ll get ‘em next year.
3. Professor Gates called. He can’t find his house keys.
4. You want to take a mulligan on this one?
5. We did try to plant a question about Bo, but nobody would go for it.
