I'm guessing that the "outrage" is not shared by the public in general

given the importance of the state of the economy, and the fact the Tea Party's popularity was already at an all time low, as is the popularity of the Repbulicans as a whole.
The media and the Republicans got the manufactured outrage game down. I don't think its gonna stick, and Obama does not need to be following their script.

was frustrating for anyone taking time out of
their busy day to bother watching. Each time
Miller attempted to provide a detailed answer,
he was met with a demand for a yes or no
answer that was inappropriate for the question
asked by Reichert. It was more than obvious
Reichert did not want answers because he was
not seeking the truth.
