Pres. Obama grew a set. Republicans grew immediately apoplectic.

And boy, did they.

TPM: http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2...al-grounds.php

House Republicans recoiled Wednesday evening from President Obama's speech on America's budget woes. After spending most of the week pre-empting the address, and rejecting its expected calls for tax increases on wealthy Americans, Republicans endured a broad and severe critique of their vision for the country.

Their responses thus edged beyond substance into the realm of personal grievance. Indeed, they implied that the speech may have poisoned the well so much that working together where common ground exists might now be impossible. Translation: Waaaaaahhhhhh! We've been saying mean stuff to him and now he said mean stuff back, and it hurt our feelings. Waaaaaahhhhhh!
