"Yahoo posts letter, pulls out headline quote that sounds negative."

In context, he was saying he pursued health care reform for the public good, not his own political interest.

Handwriting analysis, anyone?

I doubt that the President would actually use the term "tea-baggers", unlike myself.

Why not? It's a much more polite term than what I would have used.
I thought he showed heroic restraint.

Interesting that not any of the major news sources aren't doing anything with the story.
It pretty much does look like his writing at this link though I haven't a clue to what means what with handwriting.
