When I heard that the president of the United States called someone [Kanye West] a "jackass," I cheered. This is exactly the kind of human, non-Spock-like outburst Obama needs to do much more of to better connect with the vast majority of the American people.
...what the president's natural outburst shows is that sometimes you don't have to split the difference and find common ground with lunatics, the underinformed, or crooks.
Sometimes, maybe even often, you have to call them a jackass.
