After several unpopular compromises on health care reform, and after the revelation that the White House didn't put any pressure on Joe Lieberman to support the public option, President Barack Obama decided to do something to bring a little holiday cheer to the White House. He decided to dress up as Santa Claus for the kids.
Unfortunately for the President, one young boy wasn't exactly in the holiday spirit and ended up causing a bit of a scene. Take a look.

TRANSCRIPT FOR THOSE WITHOUT VIDEO:
PRESIDENT OBAMA, DRESSES AS SANTA CLAUS, MEETS WITH A YOUNG BOY.
OBAMA: Ho, ho, uh, ho. And what do you want for Christmas little boy?
KID: Well sir, I wanted a public option and real health care reform, but, unfortunately, you gave in on that.
OBAMA: Ha, ha, very funny. Let’s bring in the next kid.
KID: I know! How about for Christmas, you stop listening to Rahm Emanuel?
OBAMA: Now where is Santa's secret service?
SECRET SERVICE AGENT COMES IN AND DRAGS THE KID OFF AS HE'S TALKING.
KID: Or how about this? How about for Christmas, you realize that demoralizing your base will lead to massive Democratic losses in 2010 and 2012? How’s that for a merry fucking Christmas!?!
