Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI doubt many of you recall this, but Obama was once pissed off at Joe Lieberman enough that...
...he went up to him on the Senate floor (this was when Obama was a candidate), grabbed Lieberman by the cuff of one of his sleeves and hauled him into a corner where he read him the riot act on something. It doesn't really matter. This is Joe Lieberman. It could have been any of a host of things.
Anyway, I'd like to see the President do a little metaphorical cuff-grabbing and dragging during this debate. Maybe not just yet, but Mitt is (as always) an absolute fuck, interrupting and being a dick.
The President is a cool enough customer, he knows how to do this in a way which seems tactful and Presidential.

Obviously the situation is fluid.
