When was the last time we had a president who replied directly to critics without lashing out, scorning them or demeaning their different viewpoints?
Nice change. Over time, it can help to change the tone of our politics for the better. It will certainly contrast with all the primal screams we will hear at rallies tomorrow.

The last time we had such a President was a few months ago.

The one we have now has WH personnel working on drumming up negative PR against the hate target du jour (first Rush Limbaugh, more recently Glenn Beck, now the tea party protests). Not surprising given that his closest advisors are David Axelrod, a PR firm head, and Rahmbo Emanuel. Naturally, hyper-partisan Baker repeats the talking point handed down from his superiors - tea party protests are "primal screams".

I suspect primal screams are what you hear at his house when he sees news coverage of the protests.
