Good. Every time the Obama administration has to jump because of the New Media, that's a good thing. Keep them jumping. Light is the only cure for the corruption in D.C. You can see the video referenced at the link. "I took him to his own kind" is not the words I ever want to hear coming from a government official's mouth.
