One caller to WWL complained, "People are losing 5, 10, 20 thousand dollars a day in the stock market, and he's sitting there drinking a beer!" She also said, "It's insulting... there's a lot of people suffering." She insisted President Obama should not publicly have fun during a time of so much pain.
Yeah, Obama should be canceling the Fourth of July and Christmas this year because nobody should be having any fun while times are tough. Saturdays will be replaced with a supplementary Monday until the stock market rebounds.
WTF? Seriously, people are bitching over him enjoying a beer at an NBA game? Why aren't they complaining that he's actually at a fucking NBA game, lol? Of course he's trying to fucking relax, lol...

Actually, yeah. It's just that no one remembers. Bush used to get shit for going to his ranch for vacations, Clinton got shit for...well, everything. Bush Sr. got shit for not liking broccoli (seriously). Our news coverage has always been beyond retarded.
