Im charlie rose in washington. Norah odonnell is in new york. There is a lot to talk about after president obamas First White HouseNews Conference in eight months. It covered everything from the budget crisis to libya, to the David Petraeus scandal. The president himself said that so much has happened lately people forget the election of just a week ago. Nancy cordes covered the News Conference. Shes at the white house. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. The president came to the east room of the white house hoping to push his message on the fiscal cliff and he did but he also got pressed with a number of questions about his handling of Foreign Policy and National Security and one question in particular got a rise out of him about his u. N. Ambassador, susan rice. In his first full press Conference Since march president obama was asked about the criticism of u. N. Ambassador susan rice. His likely choice to replace Hillary Clinton as secretary of state. Besmerch her reputation is outrageous. Reporter rice has come under fire for stating that the september attack on an american consulate in libya appeared to be the result of a spontaneous demonstration. As ive said before, she made an appearance at the request of the white house in which she gave her best understanding of the intelligence that had been provide to her. If senator mccain and senator graham and others want to go after somebody, they should go after me. Reporter and thats just what senator john mccain did a short time later. He has been one of rice fiercest critics. First and foremost the president and commanderinchief is most responsible and i hope the president has no illusions about our view of his responsibility. Reporter the president was asked about the calf. What im not going to do is to extend bush tax cuts for the wealthiest 2 that we cant afford and according to economists will have the least positive impact on our economy. A modest tax increase on the wealthy is not going to break their backs. They will still be wealthy. One of the most frequent criticisms weve heard over the past few years from members on both sides is you havent done enough to reach out and build relationships. Are there concrete ways that you plan to approach your relationships with congress in a second term . Look, i think theres no doubt i can always do better. I think all of us have responsibilities to see if theres things we can improve on and i dont exempt myself from needing to do some selfreflection and see if i can improve our working relationship. Reporter the president also said in that press conference that hes eager to pursue Immigration Reform and Climate Change policy, but charlie and norah he didnt give a timetable for when we would see any initiatives out of the white house on those issues. Nancy cordes, thank you. Cbs news political reporter John Dickerson is in washington with me. Good morning. Good to be in washington. Up reversed roles here. Youre here and norah is in new york. Your impressions of this press conference. The president struck me when he said hes mindful of second term president s that overreached. Part of it was restrained but it wasnt when he took a whack at senators mccain and graham. He said he was being selfreflective about dealing with congress on one hand hes being selfreflective on the other hand he was so strong with mccain and graham, the way they feel in the white house is essentially mccain and graham are take a political shot at the president by picking on susan rice if they want to pick on anyone they should pick on him or the intelligence chiefs who gave her the intelligence that she was repeating. Theres also some Political Considerations coming from the republican side, mitt romney yesterday had an analysis of the president s victory. This is something i was picking up in the interviews with romney folks right after the election and basically their argument is the president did well with minorities, africanamericans, hispanic voters and young voters because he systematically basically bought them off. With young voters he offered, talked a lot about College Loans and with hispanic voters having younger hispanic voters, the children of Illegal Immigrants give them citizenship and then with africanamerican voters one strategist said it was this lowering of welfare requirements. That argument was essentially the one mitt romney made with donors yesterday in a phone call and arguing basically this is how the president did it. And thats also paul ryan talking about turban vote. Norah . Thats right. And john, it was almost as if romney told supporters that obama won because he gave a chicken in every potato everybody. Exactly. Hes now back to this was essentially the sentiment at the heart of that secretly recorded video that came out during the campaign where he talked about the 47 , the people dependent on the government they would vote for the president because he would hand things out. Romney spent several weeks trying to walk back from that statement. Now he seems to be embracing it again, the idea these voters are so easily manipulated the president merely needed to dangle a thing or two in front of them and they would rush him to at the polls. The reason you would embrace this argument if youre in the romney camp is the alternative argument is that they totally misread the electorate is a more painful one to embrace. One question that comes out of this is this notion that nancy cordes raised, is the president clearly desirous of reaching out with good intentions to republicans, because the susan rice deal suggests that hes ready to fight. On that one he is because hes irritated. Sort of at a personal level as it was explained to me. On the taxes, though, he was both kind of firm but trying to be ambiguous. Clearly the president thinks you have to raise revenue somehow. You can do it one of three ways. Raise taxes on those making more than 250,000. Reduce loopholes or some combination thereof. He basically thinks theres no way to do it without some kind of tax increase but hes trying not to look like a bully about it. John dickerson, thank you very much. There are new details this morning in the camethat forced cia director David Petraeus to resign. The military is taking action against the woman involved in the case and we also know the name of the fbi agent who triggered the investigation, bob orr is here in washington. Bob, good morning. Reporter good morning, charlie and norah. Cbs news now has learned that several months ago tampa socialite jill kelley sent a series of emails to David Petraeus complaining about the upsetting messages that kelley had received from broadwell, petraeus mistress. Kelley took those messages to a friend who was an fbi agent a key first step in exposing the whole scandal. Law enforcement sources now identify that agent as 47yearold Frederick Humphries. They describe humphries as a solid veteran counterterrorism agent. Humphries took kel chips complaint about harassing emails to the tampa cyber squaund a move that triggered the investigation that one covered the affair of broadwell and petraeus and led to the investigation of general john allen. At the white house the president for the first time addressed the scandal and praised petraeus. General petraeus had an extraordinary career. He served this country with great distinction. In iraq, in afghanistan and as head of the cia. Reporter the president was asked whether he was concerned that the fbi investigation which started in late spring was only related to him last week. Am withholding judgment with respect to how the entire process surrounding general petraeus came up. You know, we dont have all of the information yet. Reporter the president also said the investigation found that no National Security information had been compromised. And just this morning while on a trip in Thailand Defense secretary leon panetta said he doesnt see the scandal widening. Im not aware of any others that could be involved in this issue at the present time. Reporter on capitol hill wednesday fbi director Robert Mueller briefed congressional Intelligence Leaders saying the fbi did find that broadwell who had been researching a book on petraeus may have mishandled classified information. Also on wednesday the army suspended broadwell security clearances and the air force base rejected kelleys access to the base. Officials have said emails between kelley and allen contain nothing of a sexual nature but could be embarrassing. Allen has denied any wrongdoing and has not spoken publicly but his attorney did release a statement on his behalf saying he was fully cooperating with the investigations and to the kent theres certain questions on communication with general allen he plans to resolve those questions as quickly as possible. In an interview with charlie rose in washington on wednesday night the head of u. S. Special operations, maintained high praise for his colleagues. My time serving with David Petraeus and john allen are the two finest officers ive ever worked with. Ill leave it at that. Reporter David Petraeus is set to testify before Congress Tomorrow morning. Were told the hearing will be closed. Charlie, norah. Bob orr thank you. John miller is with us. A former fbi assistant director. Lots of interesting stuff to talk about first. This fbi agent number one the whistleblower what are we learning about him . Fred humphries is an interesting figure in the fbi. He is a member of the s. W. A. T. Team. He cut his teeth on the millennium bombing plot when he was a two year agent because he spoke french. But hes also got a medal, the directors award for a shootout at the air force base front gate. On that level hes known as a hard charger. What comes with that, though, according to people i spoke with, a lot of people said theres a bit of an edge to him when he was at Guantanamo Bay as one of the interrogators he left with a lot of bad blood, lodged complaints by fellow agents for the fbi to investigate. He brought in a case that he wasnt assigned to went outside of the congress as reporting that which is just forbidden. Is he going to be in some kind of trouble and we dont know yet. Another big question front page of the wall street journal today is about some tension between the cia director David Petraeus and the head of dni that petraeus just as this stuff was about to break wanted to push back and put out his own timeline in benghazi, a different timeline than had been put out by the white house. What does this suggest . This is a David Petraeus who comes into the cia as a military guy that everybody is looking at, hes not one of us who says i can rise to the challenge, i can defend my own agency here, i can show the troops ill fight for him. He gets in a sandwich between the administration account thats a political football and going out for his agency with both barrels and in the middle of this a sex scandal interrupts that. Whats interesting he wants to do it anyway. He may tomorrow behind closed doors with congress. Final question is about was there a significant amount of classified material on paula broadwells computers. We saw that raid this week. Are we learning more she may have had more material than we thought . Yes. I think maybe more than we thought. The way they got to those materials in that raid she signed a consent form to search her house. She told them what they would find and where to find them. She has a security clearance. Thats not been revoked. But which has been suspended, first step toward revoking it. These are documents most likely in her job she went and downloaded or removed for her dissertation for her petraeus biography. In thailand this morning leon panetta said he has tremendous confidence in general allen. He remains on the job as the top u. S. Commander in afghanistan a and Clarissa Ward is in kabul. Reporter the military here in afghanistan is keeping very tight lipped about this. We put in a request to visit one of the bases here and speak with some of the troops and we were told that that would not be possible and that the soldiers here have no Public Comment on such matters, that they remain focused on third mission. Now we were able to speak to some officers who asked to remain anonymous and their reaction to this scandal were mixed. Some said this does not affect the mission here in afghanistan, that it has no bearings whatsoever on their daytoday operations. But one major wrote this to me. Quote, were taught to live the army values and assure our soldiers down the lowest private live as well. When one of the most senior ranking and wellknown generals of our generation cant do it it makes it tough to make a private do it and then discipline them when they dont. For cbs this morning, Clarissa Ward, kabul. A week of border violence along the gaza strip is escalating this morning. Three israelis were killed when hamas fired dozens of rockets into israel. On israel wednesday assassinated hamass top commander. Alan, good morning. Reporter good morning. Leaders from both the west and arab world are trying to douse the flames of the latest conflict between the israelis and hamas but so far neither sign is willing to call a truce. Rockets sent israeli civilians seeking cover. The rockets are poorly aimed but deadly nonetheless. A family of three died when one struck their home. They had gone on to the roof to watch an aerial display. About the same time as the family died more than 1,000 gaza residents took to the streets. The march the office bury ahmad jabari, killed in an air strike. The funeral was as much a gesture of defiance as it was mourning. His killing was retaliation for a series of rogt attacks launched by gaza by palestinian militants. The mini war was announced on twitter. At 6 22 local time last night the Israeli Defense force tweeted we recommend that no hamas operative show their face above ground. Hamas responded with their own tweet. Our blessed hands will reach your leaders and soldiers wherever they are. You opened hells gates on yourselves. Minutes later the Israeli Military tweeted a picture of the hamas leader, ahmad jabari eliminated. Overnight a number of rockets were intercepted. Those living within 25 miles of gaza were ordered to stay home. There are dire warnings this morning that the spiral of violence could get out of control leading to wider instability in an already seething region. Hamas claims it has rockets capable of reaching tel aviv and the israelis believe them. Israel had no interest in a war but would deal with what he called a painful blow to hamas.

Superstorm sandy didnt just destroy homes and businesses it ruined up to 250,000 cars and trucks according to the National AutomobileDealers Association and as drivers replace those vehicles car sales and prices are going up. Rebecca jarvis is here with some car buying advice after superstorm sandy. Rebecca, good morning. What happened to car prices after sandy . Weve seen a significant jump already. Edmonds. Com estimates the average used car price has now gone up 7 thoun 1,000. Thats a very significant jump. When you think about it a quarter of a million cars are now damaged. Everyone is running out the replace them and some of the damaged cars happen to be on car lots. So the actual supply of cars that was available for people to buy was also washed away. So people whose car has been damaged should you buy a new or used car. This is the question. Its actually an interesting answer because most people think if you buy a used car youll get a better deal than if you buy a new car. But in some cases you can actually get a better deal on a new car regardless of whats happened to the cars in the hurricane. In fact there are a number of them. Mdx, acure gentleman, honda, that are generally speaking less expensive new than used. What about the concern that some of these cars that were damaged in Hurricane Sandy could be refurbished and then resold. You have to watch out for them. This is something we saw after Hurricane Katrina after multiple walsh damages in this country. You tend to see cars make their way back out into the supply. You have to be vigilante about it. You can check for the cars vin number. There are experiences and ive talked to people who bought cars where inside the car they found two different vin numbers. Thats a dead giveaway that youre dealing with a car that more than likely has been in an accident or faced water damage. Go to carfax. Com to check these things. You can check for water in the head lights and check for corrosion. Thats a dead giveaway there was sea water involved in Hurricane Sandy and thats a corrosive item. If you think i can get a refurbished car for a good deal. Not a good deal. Corrosion inside your engine, it will eventually prevent your engine from running. Because of the saltwater sea water is corrosive and wreaks havoc on the engine among multiple other parts. If you can prevent from driving that type of car thats what you want going forward. Does insurance cover water damage in a car . Its interesting because a lot of people have looked at Homeowners Insurance and they had issues with getting their Homeowners Insurance to cover water damage. With cars most comprehensive coverage actually will cover water damage as will 150 will get you comprehensive coverage. Most people have it. Liability insurance, however will not cover it. Most people have the comprehensive plan. Finally just for people out there, who is protecting us, you know, the consumer from buying cars that have been damaged like this that can be a real lemon. There are a lot of watchdogs. General motors and ford have come out and said if you buy a new car after your car was damaged in the hurricane well give you and additional 500 off your new car because we can appreciate whats happened to you and your car. Now, they are certainly reputable and they are trying to make sure that the car associations themselves make sure this doesnt happen but you have to be a vigilante consumer as well.

It makes sense when you think about it because 20 years ago everybody sent letters. You sat down and wrote a letter and made it a few pages long. Then you sent emails and notes got shorter. But then after a while that started to seem too long so we moved to text and now were just taking the next logical step now we send nothing. We finally realized we dont have anything to say. The National Transportation safety board usually focus on airplane accidents but the ntsb said yesterday that new cars and trucks should have the most up to date technology to avoid collisions and as Mark Strassman reports it could cut traffic deaths by more than half. Reporter air bags, seat belts and safer designs have made cars better than ever and protecting occupants from crashes. What about cars that can prevent cars from having an accident in the first place. Avoidance technology is already on the road. Like automatic braking systems. We put volvos automatic braking system to the test. That system comes standard in this volvo xc760. The National Transportation safety board wants the federal government to require automakers to make it Standard Equipment in all cars. Along with other advanced Safety Technologies like blind spot monitors and lane Departure Warning systems. All of these kinds of systems put together can significantly reduce the number of accidents we have on our highways, there by reducing the number of injuries and fatalities as a result. Reporter and the Insurance Institute estimates the Safety Systems could reduce fatal highway accidents by more than half if they were installed in every new car. If we can reduce the opportunity to have an injury or fatality those lives are saved, all of those expenses of a terrible loss to the family they are eliminated. Reporter carmakers say Standard Equipment would be too expensive. One industry says braking system would cost 3,500 and consumers would have to pick up the tab. For cbs this morning, Mark Strassman, atlanta. Sounds like a good idea to me. I was just about to say the same thing. Absolutely. I always thought that was a great idea.

Jason aldean learned a hard lesson a few weeks ago. He and his wife talk about that for the first time on cbs this morning. Its 8 00. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Temperatures rise in washington as president obama defends u. N. Ambassador susan rice against republican critics. And country star jason aldean talks about the highs of being on top of the charts and the lows of being tabloid fodder. First heres a look at whats happening in the world and what weve been covering on cbs this morning. If senator mccain and senator graham and others want to go after somebody they should go after me. The president came to the east room of the white house hoping to push his message on the fiscal cliff and he did but he also got pressed with a number of questions about his handling of Foreign Policy and National Security. Mitt romney yesterday had an analysis of the president s victory. Basically their argument is the president did well with minorities, africanamericans, hispanic voters and young voters because he systematically basically bought them off. Petraeus is set to testify before the House Intelligence Committee tomorrow morning in washington over the attacks on the u. S. Consulate in benghazi. The this fbi agent number one the whistleblower what are we learning about him. Fred humphries is known as a bit of a hard charger.

Gayle king and Norah Odonnell is in new york. President obama is backing susan rice his choice to replace Hillary Clinton as secretary of state. He traded strong words yesterday with two republicans who have denounced rices attempt to explain the attack on the american consulate in libya. As ive said before, she made an appearance at the request of the white house in which she gave her best understanding of the intelligence that had been provided to her. If senator mccain and senator graham and others want to go after somebody they should go after me. Were not picking on anybody. And i doubt if the families of these brave americans who were murdered would believe that were quote picking on anyone when we are trying to find out the facts.

The communist party there is taking a great leap forward with new leadership. The countrys future president will have his work cut out for him. Bill whittaker is in beijing. Bill, good morning. Reporter good morning. 59yearold xi jinping is an engineer. He seems confident. He will need all his skills to lead the Worlds Largest economy and most populace country through pearlous times. Xi jinping stepped on to the world stage. His job is daungt to keep this economic powerhouse growing and the communist party in power. He inherits an economy thats slowing while citizen discontent is growing over pollution, corruption and the gap between rich and poor. Whether he deals with these challenges through reform or repression is the big unanswered question. Since the time of mao the communist party has cloaked the personal lives of chinese leaders under a veil of mystery. But in these more open times weve been able to learn more about the life of xi jinping. He has a daughter at harvard. And a famous wife. Shes a member of the Peoples Liberation army and a popular folk singer. Chinas new leader has an elite pedigree known here as a communist party princeling. His father fought with mao, became vice premier. But during the chaotic cultural revolution in the 60s and 70s, his father and he himself were labelled reactionaries. Xi sent to the country side for reeducation. After his rehabilitation he rebounded quickly. He ran several bustling Economic Zones including shanghai. As Vice President he visited the United States this year, met with president obama and went to iowa where he once went on a trade mission. Still, little is known about his political beliefs. Whenever theres a new chinese Leader People in the west look over from afar and say, have a natural sense of hope. They think hes just like us. The idea that hes going to come in as a liberal reformer just like people thought of his predecessor, i think is nonsense. Reporter now, chinas leaders say this country wasnt hit by the world financial crisis because the economy here is run by the state and, charlie, norah and gayle the new president is not likely to reform that.

Welcome to cbs this morning. Bartletts familiar quotations is out with a new edition, the first in a decade. Some people are in it for the very first time like steve jobs and barack obama. Jeff glor spoke with the man who put it together. They have been doing this for 152 years but bartletts say this is the most substantial revision ever and the material has changed because our world has too. Ask not they range from the epic ask what you can do for your country. To the outrageous. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Some are better sung. Others can hardly be read. They are the phrases that define our world all found sidebyside in one place, bartletts familiar quotations. If you want a snapshot of who we are and why, this is where to look. A always, b, be, c closing. The collection of quotes was First Published by John Bartlett in 1805. It was then 258 pages long. Obviously his original edition was dominated by the bible, by shakespeare. That is what has expanded tremendously. The complete works of elizabeth jordan. This is the editor of the 18th edition of bartletts now a massive 1400 pages plus. He spent six years digesting new material, debating the old and ultimately deciding who would make the cut. How do you decide what goes in . It is a judgment call. Thats what makes it different from just googling something and coming up with, you know, 100 different fragments that are unrelated. The latest edition contains 20,000 quotes, 2,500 of them new. Among them more women, more international voices, and much more media. Television shows, events and interviews. Didnt like it. I didnt inhale and never tried it again. Music. Im king of the world. And films. The lines that people recognize im looking for my wife. That become the basis for conversation. This is the process by which quotes become familiar. You had me at hello. Quotes also become familiar through crisis. The number of casualties will be more than any, any of us can bear ultimately. 9 11 has a heavy presence in the latest edition of bartletts with words from allies as well as enemies. Stalin is in there, hitler is in there. Its not about words that uplift and word to live by its also the things that may have had a terrible influence. Ill mand as best as i can. Or unexpected ones like these three words from south park. They killed kenny. They killed kenny. They killed kenny. Yes. Whats the reasoning there . Well, actually, one of my colleagues insisted on that. Yes, yes, yes in bartletts it can be said all that count ill have what shes having. Is all that matters. The eagle has landed. As long as its familiar and unforgettable. Good night and good luck. We can just sit here and quote them all morning. We could. The right quote, your piece number one was beautifully done but the right quote can change your mood and change your mind. Absolutely. You just dive into bartletts. We have our favorites here. Ill go first. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. That was Eleanor Roosevelt. I think that says everything. But one of my favorites thats not in the book, when people show you who they are believe them the first time. Think about that for a second. First impression. One of my favorites, whatever you do or dream you can begin it, boldness has genius and power and magic in it. Brilliant quote. My uncle tags every one of his emails with that quote. Charlie rose no charlie. Well post his online how about that . I love some of David Foster Wallace quotes in the book. One of those was in the piece. I also love the quote from the last lecture. You get people to help by telling the truth. Being earnest ill take an earnest person over a hip person every day because hip is short term. Earnest is long term. And alfred einstein. It is i have no special talent, im only passionately curious. Brilliant. Very nice. Thank you, jeff. Sure guys. Jason aldean is selling out stadiums across the country.

Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to each other. Thats a rule. Its true because it works. Has done and always will do. Daniel daylewis plays the title role in the new movie lincoln and hes a knockout. Based on the best selling book team of rivals by doris Kearns Goodwin. Good morning. Good morning. Im glad to be here. This is so great to have this book released at the time of the movie. Youve done a lot of biographies of president s and you spent ten years on lincoln. Why lincoln . I think after i finished franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and that was such a dramatic moment the world war ii and they are such big people i cant go back to franklin pierce. Lincoln is the moby dick. I was terrified when i started. How i could do anything new about him. But it was worth taking that risk to live with his character for ten years. I feel in the book and the movie we get to know him. I was surprised to hear about his voice because i assumed he had this big booming gregory peck voice. Now for the first time you believe and many others believe daniel daylewis got it right. He wanted to get those Little Things right. I took him to springfield for a couple of days to see the various lincoln sites and we talked about voice and walk and humor and people who knew lincoln at the time said he had a very high pitched voice and when he spoke to those big crowds the baritone voice would get stuck. We knew from his partner he walked like a laborer as if he had the burden on his shoulders. Daniel starts walking like that months before the movie. He didnt want to go to the grave site i understand. So interesting. We planned, i planned a days trip for him to see the house, the loft, the museum and to go to the grave and he decided i dont want to think of him dead. I under that. I could barely get to the end of the book. I felt i was losing this great man that i lived with for this long. Part of your dna by that time. Charlie rose you know a thing or two about lincoln and doris Kearns Goodwin. Doris among all the qualities he had, what is it that you think most defined him . I think the thing that most defined him was that he had this humility but confidence. Never arrogance. On top of that he had a sense of empathy, a sense of melancholy. His hence of humor brought shininess to his eyes. We dont think of him that day. We think of that steady face. Wow he was funny. You write about his face. You said his features did not belong to that of a handsome man. He looked sad. I thought that was an interesting way to describe his face because of the hair . Well no. There was something of the bone structure of his face that made him look sad, that long face. People said he could sit in a chair and feel melancholy dripping from him. But when he started to speak his legs and arms would move. He would laugh. Suddenly you saw him alive. Thats what daniel does in the movie. He tells stories. This is about lincoln and his team of rival, other people and he was rival with and brought into his cabinet. Is there a lesson for obama now in his second term with that, with lincoln . Even in his first term president obama tried to bring in hilary was the big rival at the beginning. Somebody asked him early on right after he won the nomination would you really be willing to put into your cabinet a rival even if his or her style was an occasional pain in the butt. He quoted lincoln. Ep said the country is in peril, strongest people i want by my side. He tried to bring in judd greg and biden. The trouble with our country its so divided the other party feel its a traitor to join a cabinet and even in fdrs time he brought two Top Republicans into his cabinet. He brought in businessmen. We got figure that out now. Were under a common problem to get this economy going again. Hell bring in who he can. Is it true he sought you out to talk about lincoln. The interesting thing he was still running for the nomination and i had my cell phone and i picked it up and on the other end it said barack obama i just finished team of rivals and we have to talk. He wanted to talk about lincolns emotional intelligence. He couldnt believe this man was able to forgive things that had happened in the past, he was able to surround himself with people who could argue with him. Tor rice we have a viewer question for you because we selected your book. What was the most surprising or shock thing about a historical event or person that you discovered in your research. I think for me because i always pictured him as a statesman and suddenly i saw that sense of humor. Somebody said to him at wouldnt point lincoln youre two faced. He said if i have two faces do you think i would be wearing this face. What shocked me he could be with jon stewart, one on one. I would never have kissed that before i lived with him. Doris concerns goodwin thank you. That does it for us. Byebye charlie well see you tomorrow. Up next is your local news. Well see you tomorrow on cbs this morning. [ harry umlaut ] thats one creamy muller. [ sally umlaut ] its greekstyle yogurt. Thick, scrumptious, and more protein than those regular yogurts. Are those almonds i see in the corner thingy . Caramelized almonds i think youll find. Well, who wants ordinary runofthemill almonds when you could have the caramelized kind . If i was this girl, id caramelize my whole apartment. Weird. This greek style yogurt has style. You can say that again. Why thank you. This greek style yogurt has style. Okay. Stop saying it now. Youre sending me mixed messages. [ male announcer ] muller. The european for yummy
