Reading your post title (great line!), it occurred to me this is the first President I can recall where so many common folk feel the only way to get through to him is by infuriating him. It's partly as a feel-good game, but mostly because we feel he is totally unreachable for the working people's body politic, including through Congress. That's very unhealthy for our nation.

They say Lincoln let folks wonder in the White House out of the street. Obviously impossible today, but this crew is ridiculous, as if they reside in a castle with a moat.

Amen, on that fragile web of life. See Houston!
