"People don’t interrupt him, tell him he is being obtuse and that he is dead wrong."

When Boehner is speaking on the floor of the House Obama's not there to be interrupted. At press conferences few reporters tell him he's being thick. Those that shout out during speeches that he's dead wrong are considered hecklers or bores and no response--apart from witty putdowns--is needed.

A better come back would have been that he's married and has teenage daughters. In other words, he's constantly interrupted, told he's being obtuse and that he's dead wrong. At least by females.
