“Does White House see gays as left fringe?”

CBS News: “Citing an Obama administration adviser, [NBC's John] Harwood said because the president is ‘doing well with 90 percent or more of Democrats,’ the White House ‘views this opposition as really part of the Internet left fringe.’”

Slate’s Mickey Kaus writes: “You have to wonder if the unnamed Obama aide’s ‘take off the pajamas’ jibe was not a self-pitying expression of frustration but rather an intentional attempt to goad the liberal blogosphere, giving Obama some anger on the left to push back against, translating into a rise in the polls.”
