That reporter interrupting Obama is a dog whistle to the GOP base: scapegoat here, attack, attack,

attack. Nothing Obama does can be left to stand as a clear bit of policy. Everything he tries has to be destroyed. The GOP are d e s p e r a t e!

His family is probably receiving veiled threats, he is probably being hit with some kind of harassment every time he appears in public. I donated to his "Have dinner with Obama" email today, he needs us as much as we need him.

his profile to new heights. Afterall, I didn't even know he existed until today. Now he's national news, kinda like "Joe the Plumber".
