I've seen the dynamic enough times to know when someone is scared that his heretofore unassailable position is slipping away. People like Gleim like it when everything is handed to them just because it's always been handed to them. Now he has to do something to show that he deserves his elevate perch, and he's got nothing. So he complains about unspecified idiots in Washington or taking his ball and going home so he can go back to his privileged position and not have to deal with any of these impertinent questions.
