‘You Are Terrifying Us’ ; Voters send a message to Washington, and get an ugly response.

By Peggy Noonan http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204908604574334623330098540.html "They are mocking and menacing concerned citizens. This only makes a hot situation hotter. Is this what the president wants? It couldn’t be. But then in an odd way he sometimes seems not to have fully absorbed the awesome stature of his office. You really, if you’re president, can’t call an individual American stupid, if for no other reason than that you’re too big. You cannot allow your allies to call people protesting a health-care plan “extremists” and “right wing,” or bought, or Nazi-like, either. They’re citizens."
