Just in, Obama: "Come after me."

Just in from NPR: President Obama on the controversial attacks on Rice.

"If Senator McCain and Senator Graham want to come after someone, come after me."

President Obama has yet to make a SOS, appointment, but the words from POTUS are refreshing, indicating a willingness to confront the GOPer RW. There are also undertones criticizing the GOPers for getting it up only when the prospect is a black woman.

We will see if the GOPers will get juice again, or if they get slapped down.
