President Barack Obama will honor NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson and the 11 other Chase drivers from last year in a White House ceremony on Wednesday – but nearly half of the 2010 playoff contenders won't be there.
NASCAR said Thursday that five drivers – Greg Biffle, Kurt Busch, Carl Edwards, Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart – will not be attending the White House visit due to "schedule conflicts."
.
(I wonder if it's the same kind of scheduling 'conflict' that makes the President schedule a TV speech at the SAME time that there is a Republican Debate occurring?)
.
They must be very busy people. Regardless of one's political views, the president is still the president – and an opportunity to speak with the leader of the free world is a rare and special one.
You'd think whatever photo shoots or sponsor appearances these drivers have lined up on Wednesday afternoon – if that's indeed the reason – could be rescheduled. After all, this is the President of the United States we're talking about here.

You've just gotta go read the Comments over there. It's quite funny.

But for those not in the know, it's half way through THIS current season. The 2010 Season ended last November and the 2010 Official NASCAR Awards Banquet was in January. I don't remember him waiting 8 or 9 months to congratulate NCAA or NBA b'ball champs. Do you?

Then I am a raceist, I would not stand in the same room as that marxist Hugo Chavez wanna be, bill ayers taught community organizing ass.
SEE!
Here's another one!!
Although, I'm one too!!!
I thought it was so typical that when anyone who isn't at the WH, with their head stuck up Obama's ass, when he says, "...stick your head up here", they invariably get labeled as racists. But when ACTUAL racism shows it's face, they ignore it.
Hell, this WH applauds it so long as the guy on top is non-white!
Hey, anything and everything the Marxist-in-Chief does or says is nothing more than a campaign photo-op. In reality, he cares as much about NASCAR as he does about White people or America. ZERO!
I wouldn't even make a pit stop if I was racing.
Can you hold it in that long?
I wouldn't be there either. MusTURD Greens give me gas.
