I have been teaching Interpersonal Speech Communications at the secondary and post-secondary level and having said that all rancor aside between the parties involved here, my only fault with meetings like this has to do with the meetings proxemics. Had this meeting taken place within the United Nations or say in a neutral country, e.g., Switzerland, that fine, I'm all for it. This meeting, again in and of itself I have no problem with, but I do object to its having been at the "people's house" (White House) without the "people" knowing and approving. Another example of how Obama uses American resources for his personal aggrandizement and benefit. Frankly, I am embarrassed.
