It was a fireworks show on Sunday, as former White House senior adviser David Plouffe tried to deny to former George W. Bush deputy chief of staff Karl Rove that the ongoing IRS scandal has anything to do with politics.
National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre accused President Obama Thursday of trying to exploit the recent Connecticut school shootings to advance a decades-old gun-control agenda in his first public response to Mr. Obama's State of the Union address.
David Plouffe, former campaign manager and political advisor for President Obama, weighed in on recent Republican Party rifts with a gleeful, early morning Thursday tweet: "Grab the popcorn," he wrote.
President Obama has probably put the Secret Service on this one, and the FBI, the CIA and the D.C. cops, too. Who came up with that really dumb idea of putting out an official White House photograph of the president stalking clay pigeons with his shotgun?
A thinly veiled White House threat to Americans against altering a photograph of the president supposedly skeet shooting has pretty much fallen on deaf ears.
Americans enter President Obama's second term more upbeat about the direction of the country than they were four years ago, when the recession was at its depths, but voters are less sure that government can be of any use to them.
As President Obama embarks on another four years in office, he is mindful that history is littered with the wreckage of presidents' second terms.
The White House says it will work with the Algerian government to understand how events unfolded in the terrorist attack on a natural-gas complex in the Sahara desert.

To put it mildly, many in the Republican Party were not pleased with the outcomes of Tuesday's elections. This represents a national repudiation of reality: We have tossed out the doctor because we don't like his prognosis. The spending addict does not want an intervention; he wants more spending, no matter what.
For President Obama, it's ending where it all began. He will close his 2012 campaign with a nighttime rally Monday in Iowa, where his 2008 caucus victory jumpstarted his road to the White House.
Running at a breakneck pace in what is shaping up to be one of the tightest presidential battles in American history, President Obama and Mitt Romney spent the last full day of the campaign scouring the country for additional votes, and calling on their troops to give them the ground support they need to capture the White House.
President Obama, with first lady Michelle Obama by his side, wrapped up the final, frenzied hours of campaigning in the place where his march to the White House first began.
Just two days from the finish, President Obama's campaign is mobilizing a massive get-out-the-vote effort aimed at carrying the Democrat to victory, as Republican Mitt Romney makes a late play for votes in Democratic-leaning Pennsylvania.
Mr. Plouffe said, "There were liberal groups targeted," but when challenged by Mr. Rove to name one, could not.
