No teleprompter - he probably said something like, "God invented Guinness so the Irish wouldn’t rule the world!" - I can't wait to hear his staff start leaking sound-bytes about what he really meant to say...

I'd say that he is asking if he has to go outside to smoke, but Michelle is there... and he probably doesn't want his ass kicked again. (She likes it when she does that and the Secret Service agents wrestle her to the ground.)

I can't believe folks clapped for that piece of bull.
Could be "black" Irish, though he never mentions his other half (side).
