Who the hell wants to speak about politics when im in front of the boy scouts, right . This is cnn tonight. Im don lemon. The president actually went on to blast the media, push for the repeal of obamacare, and reminisce about his election victory, all in front of the boy scouts. So much for not talking about politics.
