Originally, we were going to pull the quote in response to Couric’s more-hardball question about Obama’s vacation time (which you should still go to the link and read), but then we saw this and simply had to criticize it. Katie, you’re interviewing the president, not a Hollywood actor. The standard for question-asking needs to be a little higher than, “Is your job too hard?” • source
