the problem i have with it is i do think this particular program at this particular time when you have all the things going on in the world that you have this president losing the respect not only of russia but also many of our allies that he d pick to trade the dignity of the white house and leadership for getting more web hits. i think what it really does is shows that obamacare has some huge problems that are going to make this something, anything but the affordable care act. it s clearly going to become more expensive for every american because of the way the signups are going. julian, i want to play a memorable moment from another former president speaking of the dignity of the presidency and of the white house. let s take a look at that. i know. i dent think weblgd get mr. nixon to standstill for a sock it to me. sock it to me? now, john, if the presidency can survive richard nixon saying sock it to me, then certainly it s okay for the president to
