Seriously, though, what was the point of the NY Times reporter’s question? One would think he would have wanted to take full advantage of the chance to ask the president a serious question — instead of one that lends itself to fluff. On the other hand, I thought Obama masterfully (and comically) navegated this four part query. Well done!
