“The ferocity of pushback is intense. A routine press query can draw a string of vitriolic e-mails. A negative story can draw a profane high-decibel phone call or worse. Some reporters feel like they’ve been frozen out after crossing the White House.”

Wow.

A profane high decibel phone call?

Does that mean when Obama doesn’t like a story, he has the minions call and scream curses at the reporter?

It’s becoming cliche, but you know, “If Bush did that...”

I imagine O throws a tantrum. MO throws a fit, and Rahm or Axelgrease calls and screams at them. There will be no criticism of the thin skinned boy king wannabe.

While then Sen. Barack Obama was considering running for president, his adviser and friend David Axelrod worried in 2006 that Obama would have to toughen up for a White House campaign. Axelrod told Obama that he was thin skinned and he wondered if Obama could take the punches that would come in a presidential campaign.

"You care far too much what is written and said about you. You don't relish combat when it becomes personal and nasty. When the largely irrelevant Alan Keyes attacked you, you flinched," Axelrod wrote in a memo.
