TRENDING: Grassley calls Obama 'stupid' on Twitter
I realize it is perfectly legal. But is it in bounds or out of bounds for a sitting Senator to call a President stupid? (Cue up the response "but he's right" from the righties here)
This was equally classless IMO.
(CNN) - Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, who has long been an outspoken critic of President Barack Obama, used scathing language in a tweet Saturday to condemn the president's remarks about the Supreme Court last week.
"Constituents askd why i am not outraged at PresO attack on supreme court independence. Bcause Am ppl r not stupid as this x prof of con law," Grassley wrote, using typical shorthand for the social networking website.

"Heads up, Sen. Grassley. I think a 6-year-old hijacked your account and is sending out foolish Tweets just to embarrass you!" Axelrod wrote.
