Not the Brightest Bulbs
SNIP:
Yesterday at President Obama's news conference any questions about why this kind of nonsense persists were put to rest...these folks are not the brightest bulbs. CNN's White House Correspondent Jessica Yellin asked this question.
...couldn’t you just have them down here and refuse to let them leave the room until you have a deal?
Seriously. This question was asked at news conference with the President of the United States.

The only question remaining for Ms. Yellin (and all the rest of these pearl clutchers) is whether or not she has a basic understanding of how our government works. President Obama graciously explained it to her.
I mean, Jessica, I am not a dictator. I’m the President. So, ultimately, if Mitch McConnell or John Boehner say, we need to go to catch a plane, I can't have Secret Service block the doorway, right?
Geez...do these people really need a Sesame Street primer?
